János Szlávik told news channel M1 that while the number of hospitalised patients is falling accordingly, the caseload at ICU units remains extremely high. This points to a slower decline in the number of fatalities, he said.

Currently, some

50-60 percent of the population is estimated to be protected from the coronavirus

either through vaccination or because they have already recovered from the virus. Some 1-3 million more people still need to be inoculated for transmissions in the country to be halted, Szlávik said. He added that the pandemic situation was at a critical juncture and he called on the public to “stand together” and ignore “false prophets”.

Hungary will resume organised cancer screenings on Thursday,

Hungary in recent weeks was able to overcome the most critical phase of the third wave of the coronavirus pandemic while guaranteeing care for all patients, Miklós Kásler said on Facebook. The minister underscored the importance of the Covid-19 vaccine in curbing the pandemic, encouraging the public to register for the jab.
