Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett urged teenagers to get vaccinated for the coronavirus as a new outbreak spreads, saying the country’s stock of Pfizer Inc.- BioNTech SE vaccine would expire soon.

“There is enough for everyone, but there is a catch: their expiry date is coming up soon, and after that, there won’t be sufficient vaccine available for everyone,” Bennett said in a video message on Twitter.
