These data were published this morning by the Koronavirus.go.hu . The number of vaccinated people is 5,600,959, of which 5,390,593 have already received their second vaccination. 26 new cases of infection were confirmed, bringing the total number of identified cases to 809,288 since the beginning of the epidemic. One patient died, so the number of those who died is 30,021.

The number of recovered people is constantly increasing, currently 746,219 people, and the number of actively infected people has decreased to 33,048 people. 73 coronavirus patients are being treated in hospital, 11 of them are on ventilators. The number of registered people is 5,508,000, and 94% of them have already received the vaccine.

Hungary is still among the first in the European Union in terms of total vaccination coverage, so from an epidemiological point of view, our country is one of the safest countries. However, the delta virus mutant is spreading strongly in several European countries, so we ask that anyone who has not yet been vaccinated should do so.

You can continue to register on the website www.vakcinainfo.gov.hu, and those with valid registration can also book an appointment for vaccination online on the website www.eeszt.gov.hu.

In order to avoid another, strong wave of epidemics, the Operative Tribe is the first in Europe to allow the third vaccination for everyone, starting on August 1. The third vaccination is also justified due to the appearance of new, aggressive virus mutants, the relevant procedure was developed by the health professional organizations. In addition, elderly people who have not yet been vaccinated will be visited personally with the help of family doctors and medical students. The vaccination can also be administered at a family doctor's office or at a nursing home. The solution to the epidemic is not closures and restrictions, but vaccination.
