Avishai Amon, 35, from Rosh Ha’ayin, a married father of two, was an active COVID-19 denier who tried to convince others that this was nothing more than a severe flu.
About a month ago he fell ill, his bodily systems began to fail. He spent three weeks on a respirator and anesthesia while intensive care staff at Ichilov Hospital fought for his life.
About a week ago he woke up. Before returning to his home, he made an appeal to the public: “I made a mistake and almost paid for it with my life. Get vaccinated.”
