The health authorities in Germany
reported
8,103
new corona infections to
the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) within one day
.
In addition,
96
new deaths were recorded
within 24 hours
.
That comes from the numbers of the RKI from Sunday.
On Sunday, the number of cases reported by the RKI is usually lower, among other things because fewer tests are carried out on the weekend.
Exactly one week ago, the RKI had recorded
7,890
new infections and
157
new deaths
within one day
.

According to the RKI, the
number of new infections reported within seven days per 100,000 inhabitants (
seven-day incidence
) was
66.1
nationwide on Sunday morning
- and thus slightly higher than the previous day (65.6).
The number of new infections in Germany fell significantly for weeks in January and February.
Recently, however, it stagnated, which could also be due to the spread of more contagious variants.

According to the RKI situation report on Saturday, the
nationwide
seven-day R-value
was
1.06
(previous day 1.04).
This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 106 more people.
The value represents the occurrence of the infection eight to 16 days ago.
If it is below 1 for a longer period of time, the infection process subsides;
if it is consistently higher, the number of cases increases.
Britain reports no new deaths
display
The UK is not reporting any new coronavirus-related deaths.
On Saturday the number was 158. The number of new infections fell to 5177 after 6040. According to the information from Sunday, 22.2 million British people have now received at least one vaccination dose.
That corresponds roughly to a third of the population.
Corona in Europe
Despite lockdown,
Hungary
reported a new high of 7269 new corona infections on Saturday.
That is 14 percent more cases than on Friday, as the authorities say.
The country with around ten million inhabitants has one of the highest infection and death rates in the world.
Recently, the numbers rose rapidly despite a partial lockdown.
The health authorities pointed to the spread of the British and South African mutants, which are considered more contagious.
Prime Minister Viktor Orban's government speaks of a “very strong third wave” and has therefore recently tightened the lockdown that has been in place since mid-November.
Now most of the shops have to close and the primary schools are also switching to homeschooling.

In Ecuador and Paraguay, on the other hand, vaccinations are progressing very slowly.
