The total number of people infected with the coronavirus now stands at 807,209, while 9 more Hungarians succumbed to the virus yesterday.

5,363,124 people have so far been vaccinated against COVID-19 in Hungary. 4,271,990 have already received the second dose of the vaccine.

With 107 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Hungary, the number of total cases now stands at 807,209. Meanwhile, 9 more Hungarians succumbed to the virus yesterday and the number of those who have recovered grew to 732,901. The number of active coronavirus cases now stands at 44,364.

There are currently 349 people hospitalized with COVID-19, 53 of whom are on ventilators.

Since the outbreak of the pandemic, 5,996,016 coronavirus tests have been performed in Hungary.

Hungary remains in second place in the EU inoculation ranking. The Indian variant is also now evident in Hungary, so getting vaccinated is important. Children aged between 12-15 years can now register for vaccination.

After reaching the 5 million vaccinated mark, another stage of reopening has taken effect. While many restrictions have been lifted, some protective measures remain in place as the virus is still present.

Mask wearing is still mandatory where those vaccinated and not vaccinated against COVID-19 meet indoors, including public transport and stores.

The same rules apply to watching matches on projectors set up in public areas such as terraces, which means spectators may watch the UEFA European Football Championship without an immunity certificate.
