Tibor Benkő emphasized that the soldiers do not perform tasks that require professional health training, they will mainly do physical and logistical work, they will also help with the thermometer. Its main task is to reduce the workload of health workers, he said.

He also spoke about the fact that since the disinfection work carried out in public educational institutions during the fall break, a request from the army has been received from several other places. Disinfection tasks are carried out continuously by soldiers, including volunteer reservists.

In addition, the soldiers are also involved in border security, border closure tasks and the provision of humanitarian corridors, the minister said.
