Modern CEO Stefan Bensel said today (Wednesday) that the corona virus that has crippled economies and countries will remain with us for an unknown period, albeit on a smaller scale than today.
Speaking to JPMorgan executives, Bensel said: “The world will probably have to stay with the virus forever or until an unknown period.”
“There is a high probability that the virus will become an endemic (contagious) disease and it will be present with us all the time, but not at a high level as it is today.”
“Like any contagious disease,” Bensel added, laying out his doctrine, saying, “Health experts probably knew the strain of the virus and produced the vaccines accordingly, but we will be with the virus forever,” Bensel concluded with pessimism.
The arrival of modern vaccines in Israel (Photo: Cal air lines for cargo)
As you may recall, about a week ago, one hundred thousand vaccines from a modern company landed in Israel, which is the first shipment out of six million doses that Israel purchased from the company.
In total, about 6 million packages are expected to arrive in Israel from a modern company in a deal signed between the parties. In addition, about three million doses of Pfizer have already been transferred to Israel, which has already been enough for more than one and a half million vaccinated citizens.
Israel is the third country in the world to approve the vaccine of the “Modern” company, and the first to do so outside the borders of North America. So far the United States and Canada have approved the vaccine. The vaccination campaign in Israel is one of the leading in the world, with many countries having vaccinated very little so far.
