Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán announced yesterday immediate measures to defend the country against the second wave of the coronavirus, which, according to epidemiological experts, will peak sometime around December-January.
In a solemn style akin to a military communiqué, Orbán declared that his government had a war plan designed to protect the elderly, heal the sick, and at the same time maintain the functioning of society and the economy.
“We have won the battle against the first wave, we now have to face the second wave, more prepared and experienced, and armed with a national consensus,” the Prime Minister said, quoted by MTI.
Outlining a package of protective measures, Viktor Orbán said that
Orbán assured every single Hungarian that the country’s health system is well prepared and “if you catch this disease, we will cure it”. He said that hospital beds, ventilators, doctors and nurses are available in sufficient numbers, but that, if necessary, the existing over ten thousand beds can be increased two- or threefold.
Finally, Viktor Orbán asked everyone to follow the rules for their own sake, but especially for the elderly and the sick. He added that he had instructed the police to strictly control adherence to the rules and punish those who did not comply with them.
