The RKI has counted

2,052,028

detected infections with Sars-CoV-2 in Germany

since the beginning of the pandemic

(as of

January 19

, midnight).

The actual total number is likely to be significantly higher as many infections are not detected.

The total number of people who died with or with the involvement of a proven infection with Sars-CoV-2 rose to 47,622. The RKI stated the number of those who had recovered at around 1,716,200.

The value represents the occurrence of the infection eight to 16 days ago.

If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection process subsides.
