Government to introduce new restrictions because of the Delta variant?
The Hungarian Medical Chamber (MOK) suggested restrictions because of the fourth wave caused by the new, much more infectious variant of the coronavirus.
According to portfolio.hu, Gyula Kincses, the chairman of MOK, said that Hungary should start preparing for the fourth wave as soon as possible. He added that he would suggest only one restriction: the reintroduction of immunity certificates. That would make it impossible for the non-inoculated to go to events or even enter a zoo or cinema. MOK
asked the government to start negotiations
about the salaries of doctors. They said that the level of the base salary was not problematic, but the system still needs to be amended in many parts. For example, the government should arrange different bonuses and extra work.
Rare Covid-19 variant identified in Hungary, fourth wave is coming!
MOK’s chairman stated that the Hungarian government should start preparing for the fourth wave now, e.g. the administration should restart contact tracing and testing. At the moment, Gyula Kincses would suggest only one restriction. He would bring back the use of immunity certificates because that would increase the number of people who would accept the vaccine, without which there will be no end to the epidemic.
Furthermore, MOK did a survey in which they asked whether
doctors agree with the abolishment of gratuity.
No more gratuity for doctors – Hungary implements secret service measures
Based on the results, 74 pc supported the decision. They also said that they are satisfied with the rise in their base salary. However, they added that the on-call fees are still a problem. Therefore, they asked the ministry to start negotiations, which have already begun.
Gyula Kincses said that work is not the same in all professions. As a result, they need to adjust the on-call fee system so that it fits the needs. Furthermore, they need to deal with the problem of labour shortage in some areas of healthcare. Moreover,
the government pays less for employees working at night or working overtime.
To make matters worse, those receive lower payments who are younger, which boosts emigration in the sector.
Mr Kincses also stated that because of the new healthcare service law changing the legal status of healthcare professionals, more and more employees are starting to work in the private sector. Therefore, if there is no institutional reform, the shortage of doctors will remain.
As szabadeuropa.hu reported, in
certain towns of East Tyrol, Austria, obligatory mask-wearing measures have been reintroduced.
Furthermore, only those can leave Oberlienz and Innervillgraten who are protected against the coronavirus.

Don’t just THINK – DO.
It will or has arrived.
Hungary will not be spared nor given dispensation – and Delta not “visit” us.
Act now – not after the horse has bolted – got away and you have little or no idea where it is or going.
The Flood gates of tourism are OPEN – in Hungary.
National Day August 20th – what – planned the Biggest in History – at HUMONGOUS expense/cost of huf – peoples money from there taxes.
Get out – join in the gaiety/frivolity – joy of the day – ALL – together and celebrate this “special” day in Hungary – but – be MINDFUL – it could come at a HEALTH cost to us.
Those of us – Hungarians – that took or where told to be Immunized with Chinese – Sinopharm, vaccine “conglomeration” – some near 3 million of us – be Thinking Long and Hard – DEEPLY – to go get a third jab of a Vaccine – that is proving universally – a SAFER STRONGER vaccine – than the Chinese “lolly water”.
Daily new case numbers – in Hungary – bit of AGITATION and needs watching by citizens.
Prepare – for it will come.
St Stephen – Please Pray for Us.
Absolute insanity to bring back the restrictions after Hungary reached its stated level of vaccination. What are they trying to do destroy all the jobs in the food , beverage industry and the holiday travelers again? Get used to it, Covid is not going to ever go away even if you had 100% vaccination. Most of the Delta variants patients were vaccinated. I think the Delta variant is actually those vaccinated having side effects from the vaccines.
Lets all listen to Mike Hall, he is clearly a very expert.
This is the reason we got here in the first place, people not listening, government using this situation as a political tool , and the population is suffering.
It makes more sense to listen to a scientist than to some Karen or Mike who did their research in googly and face-book and\or politicians who brings in snow balls to proof there is no climate change.
But hey people are ….. you know ‘interesting’
Good luck to ya’all.
Clearly we should listen to the experts and not think for ourselves. We are just underlings; little people with no brains after all. If the expert tells us to jump off a cliff, we should do so immediately and thank the experts for their good advice while falling into the abyss.
By the way, I would like to see the proof for the virus, and so would those paying out 1.5 M Euro for producing the evidence. Now, that should make one think, not ?
Idiotic and quite Dangerous Irresponsible – Naive – statement or opinion from Mike Hall – “Delta variant is actually those vaccinated having side effects from the vaccines”.
Hall has a right under Democracy to express an opinion but THINK – do your homework before putting into the general public arena – opinions that have – NO – evidence – coming out of Medical Science or Data – to indicate nor suggest – what Hall – thinks and writes.
QC colleague of mine replied to me on a matter requiring opinion and direction :
” I know nothing about it, and because I know nothing about it, I do not have an opinion”.
Hall – may like to THINK – before he writes opinions, that have no substance of relevance, evidence, validity and Fact – to accompany his Opinion.
Be like Australia – 5 deaths – move in military and enforce people to stay in there homes.
Be like the US- open the borders and let thousands
With COVID flow in and transport them to different parts of the country and demand major restrictions for the rest of the country. The science says it has very little effect on young children but they demand they Mask them up for another year or close the schools. The teachers Union says it will have major effect on CRT classes- it must start at preschool so they are ready for Union schools.
There sure are a lot of kool aid drinkers here today. Just maybe we should consider that we are being played for fools once again. I think this is a giant ploy to collapse the economy. Sure there are people getting sick and lets consider that a good number of them were vaccinated. That being said if we are being played for fools and we shut down the economy once again Who Benefits? Certainly not the average person or small business. There certainly feels to me like a plan is in the works to crash the global economy over a virus that is only dangerous to people with other serious health conditions that are often lethal by themselve. Wake up people and start thinking for yourself. What vaccine until now did not protect the vaccinated?
It’s the unvaccinated that are doing the damage….lock them up .
Its abysmal how the commenting is going on here… clearly the rich and political have found a great tool to divide and conquer people by letting them frown on each other…either for getting vaccinated or avoiding it… look around people… you are being fooled! There is not one reliable source for you to say what is right and what is not… prepare yourself and embrace what you believe is right and pray that it goes as you wished for, don’t pull each other down please.
