Coronavirus Update: Maintain social distancing and wear masks

“Keeping to a safe social distance and wearing masks remain important. These steps could prevent a more serious second wave in the fall,” Colonel Tibor Lakatos said today.

During today's Operational Group press conference, Colonel Tibor Lakatos, Head of the Operational Group, highlighted that a new government decree has now entered into force, which facilitates crossing the Bulgarian border. “People will no longer encounter restrictions, even if they come into the country via Romania,” he said.

Lakatos added that easing the restrictions are necessary to return to normal everyday life, but it does not mean that the protection measures proposed by the government and recommended by experts should be forgotten. “Keeping to a safe social distance and wearing masks remain important. These steps could prevent a more serious second wave in the fall,” he said.
