Swedish furniture giant IKEA is joining Israel's vaccination campaign. From Feb. 21-23, the Health Ministry and Magen David Adom will set up vaccination stations at IKEA stores across the country to allow members of all four of Israel's healthcare providers to get the jab.

The cooperation is aimed at making vaccination more accessible for as many people as possible, without requiring them to schedule an appointment in advance. The vaccination stations will operate between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Ikea opened its stores in Netanya, Rishon Lezion, Kiryat Ata, Beersheba, and Eshtaol according to healthcare guidelines, Sunday. The furniture chain's restaurants and childcare centers, however, remain closed.
Meanwhile, the Maccabi healthcare provider is set to open vaccination stations at 21 BIG shopping centers across the country, in a move also aimed at offering shoppers a quick and convenient opportunity to get vaccinated without an appointment.
