On the first day of the new year, the German health authorities reported
12,690
new corona infections.
In addition,
336
new deaths were recorded within 24 hours, as the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) announced on Saturday morning.
However, it is difficult to interpret the data at the moment because fewer people are likely to be tested during the Christmas holidays and around the turn of the year and not all offices may transmit their data.
According to the RKI, this can result in late registrations.
A week
ago
, on Christmas Day,
14,455 new
corona infections and
240
deaths were registered.
The high of
1129
new deaths was reached on Wednesday (December 30th).

According to the RKI report on Thursday, the nationwide seven-day R-value was
0.80
(Tuesday:
0.68
).
This R value means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 80 more people.
The value represents the occurrence of the infection 8 to 16 days ago.
If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection process subsides.
In its report, however, the RKI emphasizes that at the turn of the year, corona cases are only displayed, recorded and transmitted with a delay, "so that the R-value may also be underestimated".
