In several laboratories in the capital, the number of applicants to the test has increased before Christmas and the enrollment rate is already 60 percent. In this way, security is not certain either: according to János Slavik, tests always show a certain moment in time, and unfortunately we cannot know what will happen to us the next day.

The chief physician of the National Institute of Hematology and Infectious Diseases at the South Pest Central Hospital told RTL Klub Híradó: He thinks it can give a false sense of security if someone travels home with their family after the test.

The tests always show a specific point in time, and sadly we don’t know what will happen to us the next day. If our test is still negative one day, it does not mean it will be the next day. Unfortunately, testing before a family dinner shows false security

Said the infectologist, who believes that family events carry the greatest dangers.

The most critical period is the first two days in which the genetic material of the virus cannot yet be detected. So these are not security. We can surely protect our relatives if we don’t find them on Christmas Eve.
