The second wave of coronavirus infection could have been avoided by avoiding holidays, especially trips to Croatia, Béla Merkely told RTL Klub Híradó. According to the rector of SOTE, national holidays should have been preferred, mainly because neighboring countries had an incidence between 40 and 60 times higher in the early stages of the epidemic.

I thought this year I could be eliminated. Most of the Hungarian families knew this, but many, probably hundreds of thousands, traveled abroad and contributed to the fact that the second wave started three or four weeks earlier than we would have liked.

The rector explained.

In spite of in proportion to the population Croatia was infected as much as Romania, but it was given a green rating so that people could return from there without any control.

So such an increase in Hungarian infections was, in my opinion, caused by a vacation in Croatia, culminating in a natural consequence of the summer that even before going to work, there were many at Lake Balaton on the 20th weekend, in mostly Hungarians. played the main role.

According to Merkely, he is optimistic that the virus has largely been transmitted to young people between the ages of 25 and 30, which is why the death rate is so low.
