Does the decline in the number of infections that have been observed for weeks threaten to come to a standstill?
An assessment will only be possible in a few days.
Experts point out that due to the weather conditions, some people may have recently visited a doctor or a test center later than usual and new infections were therefore detected with a delay.
The development in the course of the spread of the more contagious variant B.1.1.7 is not yet foreseeable.

The nationwide seven-day R-value was 0.85 according to the RKI management report from Wednesday evening (previous day 0.84), here too there is currently stagnation instead of a further decline.
The value means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 85 more people.
The value represents the infection process 8 to 16 days ago.
If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection process subsides.

As the RKI figures on Wednesday
showed, 2,896,064
people
in Germany have
received
a first
vaccination
and
1,525,943
people a second vaccination.
The
Biontech vaccine was administered
in more than
4.1 million
cases, the Moderna vaccine around
100,000
times and
the AstraZeneca preparation
in
87,000
cases - so far, however, only in the first vaccination.
Every fifth Berliner who was already infected with the corona virus did not notice anything.
Almost twice as many people as previously known could also have been infected.
This is the result of a representative study that the RKI carried out with the health department of the Mitte district.
According to this, around 2,200 adults were selected at random and invited to smears, blood samples and surveys.
An acute infection was found in one percent of the tests in November and December.
In 4.4 percent, antibodies were found in the blood, which is
2.2 times more infections
than previously known.
20 percent of this group did not feel anything from their infection.
In
48 percent of
the study participants with a positive test before the start of the study,
no antibodies
could be detected - according to the RKI, "however, this does not necessarily mean that there is no immunity."
Corona in Europe
In
Malta
, the health authorities have so far
detected the British variant
in
49
cases and the South African variant in one case.
Health Minister Chris Fearne said on Tuesday in Valletta.
The Maltese authorities have registered a little more than
20,000
infections and almost
300
deaths related to the virus
since the first corona detection in March 2020
.

In
Denmark
, the British virus variant
B.1.1.7
has now been detected in every second sample analyzed.
As emerged from a list updated on Wednesday by the SSI health institute, the variant was identified in
47.5 percent of
the sequenced positive samples
in the first three days of last week
.
These are the latest available figures, they are constantly updated and can therefore still change.
The rapid increase in the B.1.1.7 proportion of Danish corona cases continues unabated: When the first cases of the variant appeared in Denmark, it was only found in
0.3
percent of the samples analyzed.
At the turn of the year it was around 2 percent, since then things have risen steeply: in the last week of January it was already
19.6
percent
, in the first week of February it was
30.7
percent.
In total, the virus variant has so far
been detected
in
2510
people in Denmark.
There are also nine cases of variant B.1.351, which first appeared in South Africa.
In general, the number of Danish new infections has decreased significantly since mid-December.
Corona worldwide
In the
US
, the number of new infections within 24 hours is
56,384
cases.
According to the US epidemic authority CDC, a total of more than 27.5 million people have been proven to be infected with the corona virus.
In total, more than
485,000
people died in connection with the coronavirus.
The US government will significantly increase vaccine shipments to US states.
From now on,
13.5 million vaccine doses
would be
delivered
weekly
, an increase of 57 percent compared to the time President Joe Biden took office on January 20, said White House press secretary Jens Psaki.
The government will also double the volume of deliveries to pharmacies across the country, she said - to two million doses a week.
