The case numbers of the RKI can differ from those of the individual federal states. One reason for this is the longer transmission routes between the RKI and the responsible health authorities. The RKI’s Covid-19 dashboard can also be adjusted during the day.
The health authorities in Germany reported 36,552 new corona infections to the RKI within one day. This is evident from the numbers that reflect the status of the RKI dashboard at 3:51 a.m. A week ago there were 12,515 infections, with gaps in tests and reports over the course of the holidays.
Corona situation in Germany: RKI reports 77 deaths
77 new coronavirus-related deaths were also counted on Sunday. According to the latest information from the RKI, the health authorities have recorded a total of 7,510,436 cases of infection since the start of the pandemic. The actual total number is likely to be significantly higher, as many infections are not recognized.
The total number of registered corona deaths in Germany rose to 113,977. The institute put the number of people recovered from illness caused by the coronavirus in Germany at around 6,713,100. The number of corona patients admitted to clinics per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days was given by the RKI on Friday as 3.15 (Thursday: 3.26). (red / dpa / afp)
