Minister says Hungary may consider production of Russian vaccine

BUDAPEST, Nov 27 (PRIME) -- Hungary is ready to consider production of Russia-developed anti-coronavirus vaccines, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto told Russian Healthcare Minister Mikhail Murashko on Friday.

“As to the production technology, then yes, we are in talks on using and localizing Russia’s production technology, it is a technological issue. The experts in production of other vaccines in Hungary say it takes long, but we want to have the vaccine already in December or January,” he said.

Murashko said that Russia is ready to transfer the technology to Hungary.

He also said that the government does not see a regime of health masks wearing on the entire territory of Russia as reasonable, and measures to fight against the epidemic should be approved at a local level.
