After most of the infected capitals and Pest counties, it is located in Győr-Moson-Sopron county. However, the situation is different for every thousand inhabitants.

Coronavirus: the second wave, the second closure

Later than expected by many, but in mid-November, the Hungarian government also decided to try to curb the second wave of the coronavirus epidemic by introducing restrictions. At the time of the decision, 5,000 new infections were identified per day and the number of deaths from the virus was mostly between 50 and 100 in 24 hours. The first step is a partial closure, but how effective it is is questionable. Follow our news!

The number of registered coronavirus cases in each county is indicated daily on the government’s information page and, for the first time, National Director Cecília Müller reported on the number of active infections in each county at a press conference in court. operational Tuesday. The data was now also published on Koronavirus.gov.hu, it was published in a joint table with the number of deaths during the epidemic, by county. (It is true that the two data are hardly related, since the number of deaths from the first wave is included in the list, while the number of active infections reflects the current situation.)

According to official data, 133,853 active infections are currently known in Hungary, 22 percent of them (29,240 people) in Budapest. After the capital, Pest (19,191) and Győr-Moson-Sopron (9824) have the most active infections, while Tolna County (1972) has the lowest number.

The list looks different when we look at the number of active infected people in proportion to the population. According to calculations by 24.hu, Győr-Moson-Sopron county has the highest number of infected people, 21 thousand. Vas is in second place, and Nógrád county is in third place with 19 and 18 active cases, respectively. Budapest is the fourth, with 17 active infections per thousand inhabitants in the capital.

So far, the epidemic has claimed 4,008 lives in Hungary. A quarter of the dead, 999 people were from Budapest and 3009 were from the countryside. Most of the coronavirus patients died in the capital, Pest county (401) and Győr-Moson-Sopron counties (229).

The government information page also released a map last week, which would show infection by title and age distribution of people with coronavirus, but the latter is missing entirely.

Operational tension has released a new infection map, but it won’t make anyone smarter

The government had to make a decree to maintain the measures taken before the Enabling Law came into effect, but the text of the law promulgated Tuesday night was ambiguous and misunderstood by many. The government screamed a deliberate spread of horror, when in fact a decree was issued that, while applicable until December 11, is in effect until February 8.
