Prime Minister Viktor Orbán drew attention to the fact that only vaccination helps against the virus, and that the unvaccinated are exposed to the risk of a serious disease, so it is important that they also take advantage of the opportunity to be vaccinated.
Less than 1% of those vaccinated become ill, and the course of the disease is usually much milder than those vaccinated. The majority of the Hungarian population has registered for vaccination and has already taken it, those who have not yet can still do so on the website www.vakcinainfo.gov.hu. After registration, it is possible to book a vaccination appointment at the general practitioner and online: www.eeszt.gov.hu
