44 percent are dissatisfied with epidemiological measures and 3 percent say there is no epidemic, according to a Pulse Researcher survey.

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 posters, the second wave also reached Hungary. Follow our news!

Thirty-one percent of Hungarians consider that the government’s management of the epidemic is completely adequate, and 22 percent think that the measures taken so far are good, but would consider more necessary. Overall, 53 percent, more than half of the population, believe the direction is basically good, according to the latest research commissioned by Pulzus Kutató Napi.hu.

44 percent are dissatisfied, 3 percent say there is no epidemic. Most of the skeptics live in the country, there are hardly any in Budapest.

There is also a very detailed breakdown

According to the survey, 30 to 33 percent of men and women see government measures as good, but while 26 percent of women would expect other types of measures, the proportion of men is only 17 percent, according to the investigation. Fifty percent of men say the government’s action to control the epidemic is completely inadequate, compared with just 38 percent of the other sex.

There are greater differences based on age, the proportions of the age groups 18 to 39 and 40 to 59 years consider that the epidemic treatment is equally appropriate: 26-27 percent of them are satisfied. It is the most vulnerable age group to be protected from a health point of view, those over 60 years of age who are 41 percent satisfied with the central steps and restrictions.

According to the survey, those with a basic education are the most satisfied: 41 percent are good at core action. High school students are the least accepting because only 18 percent of them consider that the direction to face the situation is good, while 29 percent of those with higher education do so. 33 percent of those with a primary education just say the defense is bad, between 55 and 54 percent of those with a secondary education would expect something different from the government.

If we look at the preferences of the respondents according to the nature of the place of residence, it seems that 30% are satisfied in the villages, 24% in the capital, 23% in the county capitals and 40% in the rural cities. Almost two thirds of Budapest residents say that the government’s method of managing the epidemic is inadequate. Among the most satisfied rural city dwellers, this figure is only 42%, those who live in the villages are even less dissatisfied, and only 33% view the measures negatively.
