Hungarians who have returned home from Wuhan in China feel healthy but for the sake of safety they will remain quarantined for two weeks, the chief medical officer said on Monday.
No one in Hungary is carrying coronavirus, but the seven people quarantined will undergo several tests, Cecilia Müller told public news channel M1.
An “operative board” set up to coordinate the actions of state authorities that would be involved in preventing the spread of the virus and an epidemic that could follow, she said.
