One Covid-19 patient has died in the past 24 hours and the number of registered coronavirus infections in Hungary has risen by 22 to 4,315, koronavirus.gov.hu said on Saturday.

The number of fatalities has risen to 596, while 3,222 have made a recovery.

There are 497 active infections and

83 coronavirus patients are in hospital, three on ventilators.

Fully 4,953 people are in official home quarantine, while the number of tests carried out stands at 305,133.

New restrictions on entering the country came into force on Wednesday with the aim of preventing the import of infections from abroad.

Foreign countries have been classed into three categories: red, yellow, green. The authorities are screening arrivals and taking action based on the severity of the infection rate in each country.

This can include ordering home quarantine for 14 days and compulsory testing. The government and the Chief Medical Officer review the classification of the countries on a weekly basis.

To avoid a flare-up of the epidemic, the government has cancelled the celebrations that draw large crowds on the August 20 national holiday, including the fireworks and the air show. Meanwhile,

gatherings of more than 500 people are banned until August 15.

Most infections have been registered in Budapest (2,009), followed by Pest County (651) and the counties of Fejér (379), Komárom-Esztergom (308) and Zala (262). Tolna County has the fewest infections (13).

    It seems that the numbers of new infections is edging up every day. I suspect that after the summer holiday season, with the reckless antics of young people in places such as Siofok, there will be a sharp increase in the numbers of new infections.
