Coronavirus: the second wave

Half a year after the spring outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, the second wave of the pandemic has arrived. The radical increase in the number of infected is forcing more and more countries to re-impose restrictions, despite the fact that the world economy has not even recovered from the effects of the spring outbreak. According to the signs, the second wave also reached Hungary. Follow our news!

The president of the European Council has been quarantined, so the extraordinary EU summit will be postponed, announced a spokesman for Charles Michel.

Although Michel undergoes regular tests, the latest negative on Monday, he is quarantined under Belgian rules.

The Super Cup meeting is expected to feature 2,100 Bayern Munich fans and just 500 Seville drivers, although both teams received 3-3,000 tickets. The Hungarian Football Federation and UEFA have previously offered 500 free tickets to Hungarian health workers.

The contagious scientist János Szlávik previously claimed that the organization of the Super Cup final was a “steep thing”, while Sándor Csányi, UEFA Vice President and President of the Hungarian Football Federation, did not consider the match risky since epidemiological point of view.
