Coronavirus: the second wave, the second closure

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

Cecília Müller told public media on Sunday, saying that “ walking aimlessly through shopping malls is dangerous, ” so who can do it, buy online and who does not, finds out in advance what they want to buy and by the way, as much as possible. Do it in person as soon as possible.

By Sunday, another 6,819 people had been diagnosed with the new coronavirus infection in Hungary, bringing the number of identified infections to 211,527. There has been no example of a major increase in the number of cases per day: the record so far was recorded on November 16, when 6,495 new infections were recorded.

156 patients died, bringing the death toll to 4,672.

Never before has the number of deaths in a single day been so high. Most of the deaths, 152, were reported on Saturday morning.
