“We are coming back to life,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared, as he cut into a pastry at a Jerusalem cafe.

The country launched its green pass programme last month, allowing controlled numbers of people with proof of full vaccination — or those who have recovered from Covid-19 — to enter gyms, pools and other facilities.

Green pass holders can also now have a drink at a bar — but cannot yet strike up a chat with a stranger sitting on the stool beside them, with rules requiring an empty seat between patrons, unless they live together.Large numbers of students, many of whom have been out of classrooms for months, will also start returning to school this week, while hotel event halls, sport venues and places of worship are re-opening to green pass holders, with capacity limits in place.

While many countries have struggled to secure vaccine supply, Netanyahu’s government has remained well-stocked thanks largely to an arrangement with Pfizer to share medical data on the product’s impact.
