Péter Szijjártó has called for everyone else to register for the vaccination

TASS reports that Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said on his Facebook page on Friday that he had been vaccinated against the coronavirus with the Russian Sputnik V vaccine.

“The supply of vaccines from the east continues and this morning I and my colleague Russian Minister of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov completed the March delivery of Sputnik (I also received this vaccine today)”, –  Szijjártó said in a post.

As the Magyar Nemzet newspaper explains, the minister vaccinated himself and urged everyone else to register for vaccination, as this is the only way to defeat the pandemic.
