seven-day incidence

)

reported within a week was

103.9

The health authorities in Germany reported

13,733 new corona infections

within one day

.

99 new

coronavirus-related

deaths were reported

within 24 hours.

On Sunday a week ago, there were still 10,790 reported new infections and 70 registered deaths in one day.

According to the RKI situation report from Saturday evening, the

The value represents the occurrence of the infection 8 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.
