Eleven coronavirus infections have been registered in Hungary over the past 24 hours, bringing the total number to 4,258, koronavirus.gov.hu said on Tuesday morning.
The number of deaths was unchanged at 595, while 3,106 people have made a recovery. The number of active infections stands at 557. Fully 131 coronavirus patients are in hospital, five on ventilators.
Budapest is the location of 39 percent of active infections, 60 percent of fatalities and 45 percent of recoveries.
Currently 2,782 people are under official house quarantine and 296,358 tests have been carried out.
The threat of an epidemic is still present, so epidemiological preparedness and basic protection measures are still needed, the website said. Wearing a face mask is still compulsory in shops and on public transport. As the number of infections is on the rise in neighbouring countries, the government has decided to tighten border regulations, the portal said.
Detailed data on the more than 13 million confirmed cases worldwide and more than 570,000 deaths can be found here and here by country.
