According to Schanda, public transport timetables are changing to reflect the curfew and the increasing numbers of people working from home.

From March 30 to April 10, all public service providers will switch to a public holiday timetable, with the usual weekend traffic on Saturday and Sunday. 

The state secretary insisted that there is no shortage of goods in Hungary and that consumer protection checks are continuing.
