Omicron to ravage Hungary soon?
The latest version of the coronavirus, the Omicron variant has already been detected in Hungary. It is still unknown though how much danger this latest variant will pose to the population. A Hungarian university professor presents the projected situation by using a foreign example.
New study on the Omicron variant
The Omicron variant has been detected in Hungary. GĂ¡bor Vattay, the head of the Department of Physics of Complex Systems at Eötvös LorĂ¡nd University, shared his predictions regarding the Hungarian viral situation. “We can now estimate the extent of the Omicron variant’s presence in the country after the new variant has been identified in Hungary,” Vattay began his analysis.
It is still unclear which virus variant is the most dominant in the country.
In order to get a closer understanding, Vattay examined international data to predict the rate of the future domestic cases, writes portfolio.hu. The international figures demonstrate how fast the Omicron variant spreads after its first appearance. In Denmark, they have been monitoring closely the pace of the viral mutation’s spread.
In Denmark, 13 pc of all coronavirus cases are currently Omicron variants.
“It is estimated that Omicron cases will reach 50 pc by Tuesday. And by Christmas, virtually all Danish cases will be Omicron,” Vattay concluded his analysis.
What will the future hold?
In the Danish cases, a very steep rise can be observed. A similar trend can be seen in the UK as well. With a prevalence of about 5-10 pc, there is a sharp increase in the number of cases per day. In the case of Hungary, we cannot yet experience this leap.
The Omicron variant may be below 5 pc in Hungary.
However, two cases have already been reported in Hungary when the infected people did not spend time abroad. Taken this into consideration, we can conclude that the latest variant of the virus has started spreading in Hungary as well. “Since the Omicron infections double every 3 days, disease rates rise rapidly which should be visible on the daily case count curves within the next three weeks,” the expert believes.
It would be important to estimate an exact proportion by sampling. This would allow to construct a more realistic epidemic curve and draw a more accurate conclusion. Currently, the Delta virus variant is the most common in Hungary, writes felvidek.ma. However, that may change soon.

Thank you for printing this article. It’s a variant of concern and spreads faster than the Delta. It’s now the more dominant variant in the UK. The scientific advisors are worried what the new year will bring.
ALL this Doom & Gloom – ongoing depressive expectations on – US – opinions being cast, on Hungary’s position in this Pandemic – like the “Ravage” we can in the near Future be expected to experience from this strain Omicron of this Novel virus, continues to build debate, what is Fact and what is MEDIA fantacy.
We know – from Daily recorded Medical Statistical Data – these as of 17th December 2021 – are the catagory break ups of those who have become infected by this Novel Virus.
(1) – Total Cases = 1.23 million of our population of 9.6 million.
(2) – Deaths to Date = 37.376.
(3) – Total of Citizens – who have Recovered = 1.06 million.
(4) – Present Active Cases = 159.853
(5) – Serious Critical = 542.
Daily – we can view these disturbing and sad figures – and Hope – that we are nearing the end of this Tragedy – the worst mankind has had to Face, in the past century.
What about China.
(1) – Total Cases = 100.000. of a Population = 1.4 Billion.
(2) – Deaths to Date = 4.636 = of a Population = 1.4 Billion.
(3) – Total of Citizens – who have Recovered = 93.858.
(4) – Present Active Cases = 1506 = of a Population = 1.4 Billion.
(5) – Serious Critical – 14 = of a Population = 1.4.
The Chinese figures are beyond being laballed FALSE but are a FABRICATION of Truth, that are misleading, lacking Honesty & Integrity – painting a picture- that is a FRAUD – in what they are reporting to the Global Room.
Check the web page – worldometers.info – that compiles the John Hopkins Data – of the Medical Statistical Information by country daily – and avails it for the Global World to view.
China and Hungary – the ongoing building of a Relationship.
Budapest, Hungary – will be the new 21st century – Silk Road – the meeting of the West with the East.
Hungary – the past 10 years encouraged and embraced by our present Government the building of this Chinese/Hungarian Relationship.
The property market in Hungary – the past 10 years who where the largest foreign investors – the Chinese.
The past decades by the Hungarian Immigration Department – what country’s citizens – granted Full Residency Status or Residency Permit Card Status – the Chinese.
There is MASSIVE tripidation – in the Dealings with China and Hungary, way down that 21st century Silk Road, that to call a halt or ease back, will create serious Ramifications – Economically & Financially to Hungary – on the Historically known Facts – the way China behaves – when YOU – go against there style – of Foreign Trading, Financing and “other” arrangements – ceasing matters of engagement and arrangements – that they like or believe they CONTROL.
Do you BELIEVE – the reported Chinese figures – of this Novel Coronavirus & Strain(s) – China are Relaesing to the World ?
There “Lolly Water” vaccine is NOT the reason = why the Figures out of China are as we view.
Interesting but Tripidation – that Hungary and the World – should ASK – Serious qustions.
Candour – difficult to translate this word whether alone explain it – in Mandarin – but its missing out of China.
My wife and I are Dutch and five years ago we had to leave the Netherlands because I discovered “too much”. I know, it sounds rediculous….but it is the truth. I live in Hungary now and I am happy to be here. It is a beautiful country with kind people and I have more freedom here than I had in Holland. And above all: I am save again. Perhaps we should leave this whole WEF organised virus-hype and continue our normal lives again before we end up in a Chinese social credit system and -even worse- getting digital (programmable!) money. The corona-hype goes on for two years now and the common flu disappeared worldwide for a second year. We also can see that in more than 190 countries governments take exactly the same anti-corona measures: the vaccines, the lockdowns, the social distancing, the rediculous masks……A coincidence? It’s very, very hard to beleave.
