Attention! New Covid regulations are in effect, also in Hungarian spas
Change language:
Hungary received the second-worst classification in terms of Covid infection numbers by the European Union. To prevent the virus from spreading, several safety precautions and regulations were introduced.
The general regulations
As Daily News Hungary wrote, several regulations were introduced on 1 November. Visiting hospital patients is not permitted unless the patient is terminally ill. Employers can make vaccines mandatory if they wish. It is the employers’ decision to allow the unvaccinated employees to keep working or send them on unpaid leave.
Those working at the Hungarian Defence Forces have to take the first jab by 1 December. People employed by state or municipal institutions have to take the first dose of the vaccine by 15 December if they work closely with clients. If their job does not require them to be in contact with clients, the deadline is 31 January.

Wearing masks is mandatory for travelers. At train stations, bus stations and stops, and on all vehicles of public transportation wearing masks is obligatory. Drivers who work in a closed cabin, children under 6 years of age, or people with psychosocial disability or autism are exempted from the rule. The masks are also a must have in theaters, cinemas, and libraries.
“Most people who are currently treated in intensive care are unvaccinated.”
Why is this so hard to understand for some?
