Jobbik Demands Making Mask Use Compulsory In Hungary
The government should make the use of face masks compulsory in public areas, an MP of the conservative Jobbik party said after a meeting of parliament’s welfare committee.

The government should also ensure a distribution of the protective masks, György László Lukács, a member of the committee, told an online press conference.

He cited government reports according to which Hungary has 86 million face masks in stock.

He warned against relaxing restrictions too soon, arguing that “it could cost lives” or the health of many people.
