COVID-19 in Hungary: all statistics on the decline

Portfolio
As Prime Minister Viktor Orbán announced this morning, the number of Hungarians vaccinated has reached the 35 million mark, which means restaurant terraces can open from Saturday and the curfew will also start later. The official daily data now released show there were 3,427 new coronavirus (COVID-19) cases confirmed in Hungary yesterday, increasing the total since the pandemic started to 764,394. The death toll rose to 26,208 after the disease claimed the lives of 207, predominantly elderly or chronic, patients. The number of active cases is down to 264,039. There are currently 7,177 patients treated in hospital, including 844 on ventilators.

The 3,427 new cases confirmed yesterday are slightly fewer than the 3,607 reported the previous day, and the seven-day rolling average is also decreasing.

With 207 coronavirus patients succumbing to the virus, the total number of fatalities is now at 26,208. This is also slightly lower than the previous day’s 214 dead, and the seven-day rolling average is also on the decline.

The number of people vaccinated is 3,508,846, and 1,490,478 of them have already received both doses. 71% of those who registered have been vaccinated. As Orbán announced this morning, more than 3.5 million Hungarians have already been vaccinated, so restaurants may open their terraces tomorrow, and the curfew will start at 11 P.M. instead of 10 P.M. The online appointment maker system is now online, offering vaccination appointments in hospitals with the Sinopharm vaccine.
