All Hungarians vaccinated abroad to receive an immunity certificate!
Change language:
Five million Hungarians are expected to have received at least their first jab on the week after the Pentecost holiday, the last week of May, the prime minister’s chief of staff said on Thursday.
“With this in sight, the cabinet will at its meeting next week discuss easing further pandemic-related restrictions,” Gergely Gulyás told his regular weekly press briefing held online.
Gulyás said that under the government’s plan, Hungarian citizens living abroad will also be entitled to receive a Hungarian immunity certificate.
Hungarian citizens inoculated against Covid-19 in any member state of the European Union, NATO or the OECD, and in Russia or China can apply to obtain a Hungarian immunity certificate after submitting a certificate of their inoculation to Hungarian authorities, he said.

Hungary vaccination plan months ahead of European countries
Thanks to using both Western and Eastern vaccines, Hungary’s vaccination plan is one or two months ahead of other European countries, the prime minister’s chief of staff told a regular press briefing on Thursday.
“Although restrictions regarding immunity certificates will remain in place until August, we may have a relatively normal summer,” Gergely Gulyás said.
Those only accepting Western vaccines will also be inoculated by end of June the latest, Gulyás said.
The title should read an immunity not a immunity.
Since they can’t even get the rollout of the cards right for residents who have been vaccinated in Hungary it should be interesting to see how they muck up the rollout for those vaccinated elsewhere. As for those vaccinated in other EU countries or eligible for the forthcoming EU certificate, why would they want the Hungarian one which is of limited acceptance outside of Hungary?
When? How? Where does one go to get one? Many un answered questions.
