Gergely Gulyás, the head of the Prime Minister's Office, said at a weekly press briefing on Thursday that an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Hungary appears to be contained at the moment.

Gulyás said the last of the infected animals would be destroyed by Thursday.

Fielding questions, he said inspections were underway but no further infections had been discovered, suggesting a quick response had been effective. All of the infected animals are being destroyed and restrictions have been placed on animals in a 10km zone around the area of the outbreak, he added.

He said that the European Union had issued a certificate requiring other member states to accept imports from Hungary. Fifteen non-EU countries have temporarily banned imports of Hungarian meat products, he added.
