The Omicron variant of the coronavirus now accounts for 87 percent of infections in Hungary, according to the chief medical officer.
Â
Those most at risk of severe illness from the virus are still the unvaccinated, CecÃlia Müller said in a video message published on the government’s Facebook page on Wednesday.
Â
She urged everyone over the age of 12 who received their second Covid vaccine dose over four months ago to get a booster shot as well.
Â
Müller noted that Hungarians can continue to get jabs without registration on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
