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 a day had been identified 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!

The coronavirus infection was detected in another 4,140 people, increasing the number of infected people in Hungary to 118,918, according to the government website.

Most of the 103 deaths were chronically elderly patients, bringing the number of deaths to 2,596. 55 victims were reported Monday.

So far, 27,585 have been cured. The number of active infected people was 88,737, which is 2,603 ​​more than the previous day.

24 percent of the actively infected, 28 percent of the dead and 28 percent of those recovered are from Budapest.

A total of 6,153 coronavirus patients are being hospitalized, an increase of 92 since the data was released Monday morning. There are currently 461 on a ventilator, compared to 415 the day before.

Last day 13,068 coronavirus tests were carried out, a total of 1,238,467. 31.6 percent of recent tests were positive. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that a country perform sufficient tests if no more than 5 percent of them are positive, although national chief physician Cecília Müller said this was only true for the summer, when it reopened.
