以色列meyuhede保險公司表示如果在打完第二劑後7-14添有效率為89％，但15天後可達到96％，因此報告表示應將打完第二劑後7天即可取得綠色通行證之時間延長到15天之後再取得會更佳，但clalit保險公司表示不必在等，7天的保護力已經足夠。

US health body allows meetings without face covering or social distancing, but stresses need to keep masks on in public, avoid large gatherings. Officials say a person is considered fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving the last required dose of vaccine. About 30 million Americans — or only about nine percent of the US population — have been fully vaccinated with a federally authorized COVID-19 vaccine so far, according to the CDC.

美國目前已經有3000萬人（9％）已經接種疫苗，美國政府表示以接種疫苗者可以在室內開會不必帶口罩。

敘利亞總統阿塞德夫婦都檢測covid-19陽性反應，將在家隔離兩週時間，尚不清楚他們是否有接種疫苗。之前協調越界以色列婦女案時，俄羅斯協調以色列娟120萬美元購買俄羅斯疫苗送給敘利亞，但不知道何時會運輸到敘利亞。

The Iranian-backed Houthi rebel attacks on Saudi Arabia are rocking the Middle East. They recently carried through on threats to launch a major attack on Saudi Arabia.In early March, the Houthis threatened to target energy infrastructure in Saudi Arabia. In late February, they also targeted Riyadh. Saudi Arabia says it has intercepted 526 drones and 346 ballistic missiles over the last several years.The kingdom said the drone attack on Ras Tanura Port on Sunday and attempted missile strike on an Aramco residential area “had targeted global energy supplies. Ras Tanura is one of the world’s largest oil shipping ports, and the Aramco complex in Dhahran houses workers and their families from all over the world,” Arab News, an English-language daily newspaper published in Saudi Arabia, reported.Gulf Cooperation Council Secretary-General Nayef Al-Hajraf said: “These terrorist attacks do not only target the security and economic capabilities of the kingdom, but also the nerve center of the global economy and oil supplies, as well as global energy security.”Saudi Arabia’s media has highlighted that US politicians are concerned a lack of response from the White House may be emboldening the Iranian-backed Houthis.The new US administration took the Houthis off a list of foreign terrorist organizations that the Trump administration had added them to in January. Since then, they have rapidly expanded their attacks and launched an offensive on Marib in Yemen. Saudi Arabia intervened in Yemen in 2015.The attacks on Saudi Arabia are a regional threat by Iran. This is clear in their complexity. The Houthis did not have drone and ballistic-missile technology before Iran sought to support them. Like Hamas and Hezbollah, they have grown with Iranian support and technical know-how.

“It urged the international community to take an immediate and decisive stance to stop these repeated actions that target vital and civilian installations and the security and stability of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” the report said.Meanwhile, the Houthis have said an “indirect” meeting with the US in Oman was not fruitful, according to Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency. According to pro-Houthi media, the Houthi forces are advancing “like lightning” on various fronts in Marib, and Riyadh-affiliated forces are retreating and losing ground despite air support and the recruitment.Speaking about the Houthis’ military prowess, a member of the group’s political bureau said: “We are now able to build a variety of weapons and military equipment, from weapons to drones.”

沙烏地阿拉伯說，葉門胡塞政權無人機週日襲擊了塔努拉港（Ras Tanura Port），並試圖對阿美石油公司（Aramco）居民區進行導彈襲擊，“目標是全球能源供應。拉斯·塔努拉（Ras Tanura）是世界上最大的石油運輸港口之一，位於達蘭的阿美（Aramco）工廠容納著來自世界各地的工人及其家庭。海灣合作委員會秘書長納耶夫·哈賈拉夫（Nayef Al-Hajraf）表示：“這些恐怖襲擊不僅針對沙特王國的安全和經濟能力，而且還針對全球經濟和石油供應以及全球能源安全的神經中樞。新的美國拜登政府將胡塞從川普政府在1月10日列為支持外國恐怖組織之國家名單中刪除。從那時起，葉門胡塞反而迅速擴大了進攻範圍，並向葉門流亡政府控制的最後一塊土地馬里布（Marib）發起了進攻並攻佔。沙烏地阿拉伯於2015年介入葉門內戰。很明顯地攻擊沙烏地的軍火都是來自伊朗支持，因為胡塞沒有這麼先進的無人機和彈道導彈技術，而且有些飛彈甚至可能來自親伊朗的伊拉克什葉派民兵控制的地盤，像哈瑪斯和真主黨一樣，他們在伊朗的支持和技術知識的幫助下成長。

Russia signals openness to the US, could that change the Middle East?

Where could the “bilateral cooperation continue,” as the Russian Foreign Ministry has indicated it might? On Iran, Russia sees US steps so far as pragmatic.Russia is signaling a willingness to open a new page in relations with the US as the Democratic administration settles into power in Washington. The Russian Foreign Ministry would respond constructively to US signals, TASS state media in Moscow said.“We look upon these relations as those of an equal, mutually respectful and mutually beneficial partnership,” the ministry said. Russia says it has never refused to cooperate with the US, even in difficult times.

俄羅斯對美國釋出善意，表示將平等建設性地與美國交往並處理國際事務，包括2015年伊朗核協議也希望美國與伊朗放下面子，同時返回正軌就沒有誰先回去並失面子的煩惱。
