Unvaccinated people are most at risk, so they are asked to register and get vaccinated as soon as possible. Less than one percent of those vaccinated get sick, and the course of the disease is usually much milder than those vaccinated. The majority of the Hungarian population has registered for vaccination and those who have not yet, can still register on the www.vakcinainfo.gov.hu . After registration, it is possible to book a vaccination appointment at the general practitioner's office or online www.eeszt.gov.hu .
In the online appointment booking system, you can also book an appointment for the second vaccinations that have passed the deadline and have been missed for some reason.
Thus, even those who should have received it earlier, but missed it, can easily make up for their second vaccination. The appointment booker offers them the same vaccine that was used for the first vaccination.
