如果我们在常规免疫方面落后，尤其是儿童免疫接种，我们将再次面临疾病爆发的风险。因此，除了COVID-19之外，还将有大量医院和诊所由于可预防疾病而不堪重负。

“Nurses are the heart of our health-care system”
“护士是我们卫生保健系统的心脏”
——以色列政府首席护理官Shoshy Goldberg

“It is our mission to promote the profession of nursing, which is at the heart of the health-care system and is essential to cope with today’s challenges and those of the future.
“We work hard to enable nurses to reach their full potential, encouraging professional training opportunities geared towards positions of authority and responsibility. We want to make sure people get the best possible care from our nurses. I believe our efforts are what led the government to task me with overseeing all health-care professionals during the current COVID-19 pandemic.
“This involves much planning, the ability to foresee the needs that will arise and setting up what is required to meet those challenges. My team and I work tirelessly to ensure that should the situation worsen, we are prepared for the worst-case scenarios.”
“The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic have given us the opportunity to focus on teamwork, to showcase the added value of nurses and their central role in patient treatment. Nurses are proving their reliability and that they can take on additional responsibilities.
“No one is refusing to work, despite the danger they put themselves in – in fact, we received more than 12 000 applications from student volunteers, who want to be part of the efforts.
“To limit the possibility of infection, we are making use of innovative measures, such as the use of technological devices which allow nurses to monitor a patient’s condition remotely. Without having to enter patients’ rooms, nurses can measure their temperature and other vital signs.”
“There have been expressions of solidarity from everyone in society. People are ‘adopting’ families of health-care workers, who work long shifts and find comfort in knowing someone is taking care of their loved ones.
“I am thankful for the nurses’ courage and the population’s trust and confidence in us.”
“促进护理专业是我们的使命，这是医疗保健系统的核心，对于应对当今和未来的挑战至关重要。
“我们努力使护士发挥最大潜力，鼓励针对权威和责任职位的专业培训机会。我们希望确保人们从我们的护士那里得到最好的护理。我相信，我们的努力促使政府要求我在当前的COVID-19大流行期间监督所有医疗保健专业人员。
“这涉及大量计划，预见将要出现的需求以及确定应对这些挑战所需的能力。我和我的团队不懈地努力，以确保在情况恶化时，我们为最坏的情况做好了准备。”
“ COVID-19大流行带来的挑战使我们有机会专注于团队合作，展示护士的附加值及其在患者治疗中的核心作用。护士正在证明自己的可靠性，并且可以承担更多责任。
“尽管有人冒着危险，但没人拒绝工作。事实上，我们收到了来自学生志愿者的12,000多份申请，他们希望参与其中。
“为了限制感染的可能性，我们正在采用创新措施，例如使用允许护士远程监控患者状况的技术设备。护士无需进入患者房间，就可以测量他们的体温和其他生命体征。”
“社会上的每个人都表达了团结。人们正在“收养”卫生保健工作者的家庭，他们长期轮班工作，并在知道有人在照顾亲人时感到安慰。
“我感谢护士们的勇气以及民众对我们的信任和信心。”
——以色列政府首席护理官Shoshy Goldberg
