The government wants to open it as soon as possible, but that requires mass vaccination and enough vaccine. EU supplies are slow and few vaccines arrive, so they are looking for other ways to get vaccines, they wrote on the government’s information page.
The Minister of Human Resources announced yesterday that a total of 6,236 ampoules of bamlanivimab would arrive in Hungary at the end of March in three stages, of which one shipment had already arrived.
Peter Szijjártó announced last week that we are taking 2 million doses of Russian vaccine from Russians. According to the head of the ministry, 300,000 people will be vaccinated in Hungary in the first month, 500,000 in the second month and 200,000 in the third month.
