In addition,

214

new deaths were recorded within 24 hours, as the RKI announced on Monday morning.

It has not been so low since December 14th.

However, the number of cases recorded is usually lower on Mondays, partly because fewer tests are carried out on the weekend.

This number could also increase with the late registrations.

"After a sharp increase in the number of cases at the beginning of December, a decrease during the holidays and a renewed increase in the first week of January, the number of cases seems to be stabilizing again," wrote the RKI in its management report on Sunday evening.

The high of

1,244

In the case of new infections registered within 24 hours

, the highest value was reported on December 18,

at
