According to the RKI situation report on Wednesday evening, the
nationwide
seven-day R-value
was
0.83
(previous day: 0.82).
This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 83 more people.
The R-value represents the occurrence of the infection 8 to 16 days ago.
If it is below 1 for a longer period of time, the infection process subsides;
if it is consistently higher, the number of cases increases.
In three federal states -
Hamburg, Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein
- the 7-day incidence is now below 100. Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Brandenburg and Berlin are close to reaching this mark.
