The number of corona patients admitted to clinics per 100,000 people within seven days was given by the RKI on Friday at 5.34 (Thursday: 5.30).

From a value of three, the 2G rule applies across the board for events in a federal state, i.e. only those vaccinated against the coronavirus and those recovered from Covid-19 are allowed.
