With the move to the new Green Pass, tens of thousands of teachers have lost their eligibility for the Green Pass and will not be able to enter educational institutions - unless they do a corona test, Israel Hayom reported.
According to the ministry, only about 64% of teaching staff are currently eligible for a Green Pass, meaning that about 75,000 teachers are not eligible, and their entry into kindergartens or schools is conditional on a test every three days.
According to the decision of the Corona Cabinet, teachers who do not get vaccinated and refuse to perform corona tests - are not allowed into to educational institutions and are not entitled to a salary, because they do not work.
So far it seems that only a limited number of a few hundred teachers refuse to both get vaccinated and perform tests - except that if the scope of this group increases significantly, the Ministry of Education will find itself in shortage of teaching staff.
