Government Aiming for Maximum Vaccination

There’s a high chance that everyone who has registered will get their jab before the end of May, according to the prime minister’s chief of staff.

The number of inoculated has surpassed 3.09 million, with vaccine acceptance growing steadily, Gergely Gulyás told a regular government press briefing. Up to now, some 4.2 million have registered for the jab, he said. There is no discernible difference between vaccines in terms of their basic efficacy, he said, insisting that every single one available in Hungary was “effective and provided protection”. He added, based on information from the Hungarian authorities that the vaccines “are even more effective then indicated by their makers”, adding that only one percent of those inoculated became ill — and even they were at a lower risk due to the vaccine. Out of the vaccines ordered by the European Union, Janssen had “dropped out”, decreasing Hungary’s potential by 500,000 doses. The government is in negotiations to make up for that lost amount, he said. The government will launch a giant poster campaign to encourage people to get vaccinated starting on Thursday, Guylás added.
