19,185 new corona infections to

the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) within one day on 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.

The nationwide

seven-day R-value

was

1.16

according to the RKI situation report from Sunday evening

(previous day: 1.22).

This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 116 more people.

The R-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.
