The so-called

reproduction number

, an important indicator for the spread of the coronavirus in Germany, continues to rise according to the RKI.

The RKI gave the 7-day R-value in its management report on Saturday afternoon as

1.07

- this is higher than it has been in weeks.

The value has recently been increasing again, it said.

The day before, the R-value was given as

1.01

.

An R value of 1.07 means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 107 other people.

If the value is below 1 for a longer period of time, the infection rate subsides.

If it is above 1, the infection process gains momentum.

According to the RKI situation reports, the R-value was recently well below 1 for several weeks.
