Socialist MEP István Újhelyi is turning to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, asking him to name the authorities responsible for collecting the vaccination data of people who have contracted the coronavirus.
Â
Újhelyi told an online press conference on Wednesday that he had submitted a request for data of public interest in September on the vaccination status of people hospitalised with the coronavirus. However, the human resources ministry, the prime minister’s office and the national public health centre said they were not in charge of collecting that information, he said.
Government institutions may be “shirking responsibility” because Hungary had vaccinated people over 65 with the Sinopharm vaccine, contrary to the manufacturer’s instructions, Újhelyi said.

Those citizens may be hospitalised in great numbers now,

he insisted.

As well as greatly hindering the vaccination campaign, this “mendacious communication” is putting the lives of Hungarians at risk, Újhelyi said.
Should the opposition come to power in the 2022 spring elections, they will “investigate every data, contract and instruction on the vaccines,” he said.

I don’t blame the Hungarian government for not jumping to spend time and money to answer Socialist MEP István Újhelyi’s badgering questions.
He has shown time and time again that he hates Hungarians and will do anything to harm Hungary. Why bother with him?
Hungarians rightly call him Újhülye.
This forum has been used extensivly in the past to express an opinion of the “lolly water” vaccines that have been introduced by China and Russia.
They have been permitted by Governments to “masquerade” as the real thing, for numerous reasons given by Governments – but cost is the main reason – the Hungarian Government and “other” Governments used – continue to vacinate there citizens.
Factually it is known – these (2) two vacines – did not as other vacines – the REAL ones – go through the clinical trials or “other” medical and scientific procedures – before they were authorised for use in the vaccination of Humans.
The Hungarian Government – went it’s own way not the EU way – in using vaccinating it is estimated 1.7 % of the Hungarian population 9.6 million – vaccinating there people – using the Chinese and Russian vaccines.
History will tell the TRUTH – but at present still living in a world that is “swarmed” and “covered” – in this Novel Coronavirus – ongoing in our country – our lives – the vaccines other than the Chinese nor Russian vaccines – the real ones have a higher residence percentage life saving percentage to those “lolly water” combinations.
Irrespective if initially, as was the case, the vaccination of Hungarians was by the Chinese or Russian vaccine the Government of Hungary – should be applauded making available “other” vaccines for its citizens to be Immunized.
When looking back – since the arrival of vaccines became available for citizens of Hungary – the processes undertaken designed and orchestrated by our Government to get citizens vaccinated – are DESERVING – of a High Pass Mark.
May we Hungary – continue to embrace – that Vaccination/Immunization – the Benefits personally to us and to our Country and fellow Citizens – FAR – outweighs the negatives.
Hungary – we must think positively – and take up our Governments invitation – for “booster” shots.
History – will tell us – answer for us – the performance of the highly questionable vaccines – Chinese & Russian – on our Citizens.
Booster Shots – if the Chinese or Russian was given me without choice or I decided by choice to be vaccinated with either the Chinese or Russian vaccine – personally – I would put a little bit of “extra fuel” in my tank – and take another vaccine brand as my booster.
We have choice – but its worth close examination if we decide to take a booster.
High Profiled Leader the “power player” of the EU – retiring in the immediate future – did go on record (9) nine months past and say – that booster in all probability will be like we take an annual flu injection – and may become a yearly addition to our Medical needs.
Angela Merkel – could be right.
Better Safe than Sorry – respecting Scientific Medical Opinion and Advice – lets keep VACCINATING and refilling the tank.
Hungarians had a selection of vaccines, thanks to the foresight of Hungarian government.
We had Pfizer. iIt was readily available.
I have no idea what Újhülye is griping about. Just a troll.
