Last autumn, there were a series of political demonstrations in Budapest and elsewhere in the country. Further demonstrations are likely on and immediately after 15 March. There have been some cases where generally peaceful demonstrations ended in violence as a result of the actions of a small minority of protesters. As a precaution travelers should avoid political demonstrations.
In January 2007, Hungarian authorities confirmed the existence of the H5N1 (Avian Influenza) virus strain in five dead geese in south-east Hungary. No human deaths or infections have been reported. The Hungarian authorities have announced that strict biosecurity measures are being enforced in accordance with EU legislation.
Hungary shares with the rest of Europe a threat from terrorism. Attacks could be indiscriminate and against civilian targets.

It does not cover ongoing illnesses of a non-urgent nature, so comprehensive travel insurance is advised.
