The number of confirmed people infected with the coronavirus in Hungary now stands at 3,771. The number of deaths stands at 499, while the number of those recovered now stands at 1,836.
Number of active infected is 1,436. 436 patients are hospitalized, 27 of them are on ventilators.
The second phase of defense has begun, but this does not mean the end of the epidemic, as the virus continues to spread.
The goal is to gradually restart life according to a strict schedule and continue to avoid an "outbreak."
Therefore, the movement restriction is still in place in Budapest and Pest County, but new rules came into force in the countryside.
The citizens of Budapest are especially asked to abide by the restrictions, as the capital has the highest number of infected.
As the data on the deceased has shown, the coronavirus is the most dangerous for the elderly. Elderly citizens are therefore especially asked to stay at home and request help from their relatives or the municipality with shopping.
Recovered: 1,836
In mandatory home quarantine: 11,611
Number of samplings: 166,263
