This comes from data from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) on Tuesday.
According to this, the drug has now been administered once to more than 1.6 million people (as of 10:00 a.m.).
According to RKI statistics, most of the vaccinated are nursing home residents, old people and staff in hospitals and old people's homes.
More than 283,000 people have received the second dose, which is supposed to be injected about three weeks after the first.

nationwide
seven-day R-value
was
0.95
(previous day 1.01).
This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 95 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.

Vaccinations against Corona
The World Health Organization
(WHO)
does not expect the vaccinations to be sufficient to stop the virus from spreading in the foreseeable future.
It will be difficult for the world to eradicate the virus, said Mike Ryan, head of the WHO emergency program.
Right now there isn't even enough vaccine to vaccinate the most vulnerable people, he said.

Corona worldwide
Portugal reported 291 deaths related to the coronavirus on Tuesday - more than ever since the pandemic began.
The number of new infections rose by 10,765.
Overall, the health authorities in the southern European country recorded 653,878 positive corona tests and 11,012 deaths.
In the hardest hit country in the world, the
USA
, the number of daily deaths and new infections with the coronavirus has recently declined slightly.
The top state infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci suspects a natural fluctuation behind the decline.
It is more a natural decline after an increased infection rate as a result of the holiday season - than the effects of the vaccination campaign started in December in the USA, said Fauci.
The number of daily deaths related to the pandemic had recently
leveled off
at an average of
3,100
per day.
Less than two weeks ago this value had been 3350.
The number of new infections is currently an average of
170,000
per day - on January 11, it was almost 250,000.
