Coronavirus – Many more infections expected

Change language:
More and more people are expected to become infected with the new coronavirus in Hungary, and many new cases will be diagnosed, the country’s chief medical officer said at an online press conference of the operative board, which is coordinating Hungary’s response to the pandemic, on Sunday.
More and more laboratory tests are being conducted, although still only in the contact-tracing phase, Cecília Müller said.
- Coronavirus – Hungary confirmed cases reach 408, two more patients dead
- Visegrád Four are among the best in Europe in the number of hospital beds
Seven laboratories are working around the clock to process the tests, she said. So far, 12,148 have been completed, she added.
She said the spread of the virus would move to the next phase, in which masses of people are infected, “in the coming days, within a week”.
That is why people must take curfew and social distancing restrictions seriously, she added.
She said the death rate of those infected with the virus in Hungary, relative to population, is not very high compared to the rest of the countries affected by the pandemic, but added that there is little value in making such comparisons as every country is managing the pandemic in their own way.
