The number of registered coronavirus infections in Hungary has risen by 91 to 5,379 over the past 24 hours, koronavirus.gov.hu said on Thursday morning.

The number of fatalities remained unchanged at 614, and 3,757 people have made a recovery.

There are 1,008 active infections and 69 coronavirus patients are being treated in hospital for Covid-19, eight on ventilators.

The site warned Hungarians to observe social distancing guidelines and hygiene regulations. Those experiencing symptoms similar to those of Covid-19 should self-isolate and notify their GP, the website said. Those under official quarantine are required to abide by the regulations, it said.

A ban on gatherings of more than 500 people is still in force in order to avoid a flare-up of the epidemic. As a general rule people must wear a face mask in shops and on public transport, the website said.

Most infections have been registered in Budapest (2,346), followed by Pest County (782) and the counties of Fejer (403), Komarom-Esztergom (321) and Zala (279). Bekes County has the fewest infections (21).

    I have been told by a number of people who went to the Balaton this summer that in the popular resorts, social distancing was virtually non-existent, especially among the younger age groups (18-40). Thus, a rise in daily cases is alas, entirely predictable.

    Paulus, social distancing is non existant also here in Budapest, where most people do not seem to follow even the basic regulations. Few days ago i visited a shopping mall on the Buda side and noticed that hardly one in three visitors were wearing face mask, and many wearing it were doing so incorrectly ( nose out, or mouth out, or… both. ) Not to speak of public transport where drivers simply do not care if a passenger is not wearing the mask.
    Unfortunately, the perception of Covid-19 as a serious issue, here in Hungary, is missing.

    #Nario: Funnily enough last Friday I took the number 4 tram from Jászai Mari tér to Mammut (and then back again) and as you said, lots of people were ignoring the mask wearing rules.
