Justice minister: 4.3 m inoculated in Hungary

The number of Hungarians inoculated against Covid-19 has reached 4.3 million which would not have been possible without acquiring vaccines that have not yet been approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA), Justice Minister Judit Varga said. She told the Hungarian press on the sidelines of a meeting of ministers in charge of European Union affairs in Brussels that Chinese and Russian vaccines received Hungarian approval within the framework of the EU Emergency Use Authorisation system and this made it possible to vaccinate a large part of the population.
