All people who are under observation in a Budapest hospital after being suspected of carrying the coronavirus are in good health, an official of the hospital where the patients are being quarantined said.
Meanwhile, Socialist lawmaker Lajos Korózs, the head of parliament’s welfare committee, said the body will convene on Friday to be briefed by members of the Hungarian government on preparations to fight the virus.
A spokesman of the national police force said the police and the National Ambulance Service (OMSZ) are checking travellers entering Hungary for coronavirus at six major border crossings across the country. Ártánd, Csanádpalota, Röszke, Tompa, Udvar and Letenye are also entry points into the Schengen area. Their temperature is being taken and those with a fever will be isolated.
