The latest milestone was announced by Hungary s prime minister on social media.

Three and a half million Hungarians vaccinated. We are restarting Hungary! – reads the caption of PM Viktor Orban s latest video uploaded to social media.

In tandem with the growing number of vaccinations, the Hungarian government is gradually restarting the country. Once 3,5 million people have been inoculated, we will introduce a further easing of restrictions: the outdoor terraces of catering providers will be allowed to reopen this weekend. According to the rules, they can stay open until 9:30 pm, just like stores and shops, and the night-time curfew will be modified to begin only at 11 pm.
