In Hungary, the epidemic is currently moderate, which is also due to the high level of vaccination. The virus continues to pose the greatest threat to the unvaccinated, so we continue to ask them to get vaccinated. The booster vaccination is recommended for everyone who received the previous vaccination more than 4 months ago. The government continues to ensure the possibility of vaccination. Vaccination can still be requested from the family doctor or family pediatrician, as well as picked up at hospital vaccination points, where you can go on Fridays with or without an appointment.
The booster vaccination with the new type of Pfizer vaccine against Omicron can also be taken. The vaccine has received an EU license for single-dose and booster vaccination only. The confirmatory vaccination can also be taken on Friday vaccination days without an appointment.
The government and the Operative Tribe continue to continuously analyze the epidemic situation and take additional measures if necessary.
