The exclusive interview was recorded before, but Kossuth Rádió published it only this morning. PM Viktor Orbán said that the fourth wave was banging on the door of Hungary as well. He added that the government was working all summer to organise vaccination in schools.
According to 444.hu, he said that one gets the infection out of 500 inoculated people. That is why everybody should trust the vaccines. “The fourth wave will find all those who did not accept the jab,” he highlighted.
Regarding new restrictions, he said that
the government would like to evade obligatory mask-wearing
because that did not help, only the vaccine. Therefore, the government will launch a new information campaign, but PM Orbán encouraged everybody to convince one more person to accept the jab.
Yesterday, Gergely Gulyás, the Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office, highlighted at the government info that the fourth wave of Covid-19 has started in Western Europe and would arrive in Hungary, too.
He added, however, that this wave would be different from the previous three due to the high number of people with immunity, and thus it will require a “different management”. He warned, however, that
those not yet inoculated “are very likely to get ill,” while only 0.2 per cent of those vaccinated are likely to get sick, “and with much lighter symptoms”.
He also added that all vaccine types were similarly efficient.
The government is not planning on another lockdown, he said, adding that “restrictions will not be needed in education or at work either”.
Gulyás warned that people above 65 were risking their lives if they rejected the shot and said that the government would personally contact all unvaccinated elderly people to encourage them to get inoculated. Hungary has nearly 8 million doses of the vaccine to provide booster shots, and “anyone volunteering will get the third shot at any inoculation point,” he added. So far, 185,000 booster shots have been administered, while “the normal routine has been reintroduced in healthcare,” Gulyas said.
With 5.7 million Hungarians who have received at least the first shot, including 5.5 million fully inoculated,
the country can await the fourth wave “with relative calmness”.
Well as long as Sinopharm isn’t one of the vaccines on offer, I’m sure we’ll do better on this round of inoculations. After all, that’s why they’re pushing for some to get boosters, and fast

Factual Transperancy – citizens Deserve this Vital Daily Information – without Political manipulation, spin or Propaganda.
Even those who have been vaccinated can still pass COVID onto others. It has shown that with the Delta variant. Ditch the Chinese one and use vaccines we know have a proven high efficacy rate. As Caritas said, why haven’t we had any numbers since 18 August. We cannot afford to be complacent.
Can Canadian fly into Hungary yet, if they have the 2 vaccines…..Astra Zeneca and Phizer??? I know Hungary is in the green zone.
