I am not an apologist for vaccine utopianism and don't agree with the other commenter but your particular example suffers the same unfortunate fate of a point I made in the past. The scientific explanation is that Google infographics suck. They are sourced from wikipedia data and have huge gaps and sometimes even absurd duplicates.
If you look at a consistent data source[0] you will see that the 7-day average case rate in Palestine has gone from 131 on August 11th to 699 August 20th, a doubling time of 1.42 days. This would be extremely rapid transmission.
