Karácsony has also asked for the government to offer free antibody testing to everybody inoculated with the Chinese Covid vaccine and provide a third booster jab to those that have not developed immunity.

Karácsony has been contacted by persons who had been vaccinated with Sinopharm and asked for his help because antibody tests they took revealed that the vaccine failed to make many of them develop immunity.

Representatives of a group of more than three thousand people set up to share experiences with Sinopharm met the mayor on Tuesday.

The statement said that in case the government refuses to offer free antibody tests in the foreseeable future, Budapest will make the necessary arrangements to do so within its powers.
