Hungary In Constant Contact With EU Over Ebola
- 13 Aug 2014 9:00 AM
While the chances of the Ebola virus arriving in Hungary are slim, the authorities are maintaining constant contact with European Union disease control experts, a senior health official has said.
Deputy national medical officer Attila Kovács told a news conference that Hungary has no direct air services from western African countries.
But Liszt Ferenc international airport is ready to deal with any suspected case, he added. Simulation exercises for handling Ebola have been carried out in Budapest’s St. Laszlo Hospital, he said.
