Israel’s “poster boy” for the mRNA Covid-19 vaccine died suddenly at age eight. Yonatan Moshe Erlichman suffered cardiac arrest on the eve of Yom Kippur and died several days later in the hospital.
Yonatan, the son and grandson of prominent Israeli doctors, appeared in a promotional video in 2020, urging Israelis to have the Covid vaccination. He was described by journalists as the poster child for the country’s response to the Covid-19 epidemic.
