From July 4, next Sunday, it is not necessary to wear a mask in Catholic churches, announced the Hungarian Catholic Bishops' Conference.

Liturgical restrictions due to the epidemic will also not be mandatory, they wrote. At the same time, hand disinfection is still recommended when making a sacrifice.

Pursuant to the Church Code, the county bishops and those exercising the same rights as them can make other provisions, they added.
