The health authorities in Germany
reported
22,231 new
corona infections to
the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) within one day
.
In addition,
312
new deaths were recorded
within 24 hours
.
On Wednesday a week ago, the RKI had recorded 24,884 new infections and 331 new deaths within one day.
According to the RKI, the number of new infections reported within seven days per 100,000 inhabitants was
160.6
nationwide on Wednesday morning
.
The day before, the RKI had given this seven-day incidence as 167.6; a week ago it was 160.1.
The RKI has counted
3,332,532
detected infections with Sars-CoV-2 in Germany
since the beginning of the pandemic
.
The actual total number is likely to be significantly higher, as many infections are not detected.
The RKI
stated the
number of those who had
recovered
at
around
2,954,000
.
The total number of people who died with or with a proven infection with Sars-CoV-2 rose to
82,280
.

The nationwide
seven-day R-value
was
0.93
according to the RKI situation report from Tuesday evening
(previous day: 1.01). This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 93 other 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.
23.9 percent of
the population have been vaccinated against the coronavirus at least once.
This comes from the vaccination rate monitoring of the RKI from Tuesday (as of April 27, 9:20 a.m.).
So far, all agencies have administered a total of almost 25.9 million vaccinations, of which almost 19.9 million were first vaccinations and a good 6 million more were second vaccinations.
Accordingly, the rate of fully vaccinated rose slightly to 7.3 percent.
402,700 vaccine syringes were used on Monday.
The vaccination rate varies depending on the federal state.
The Saarland (26.4 percent) and Bremen (26.0 percent) have the highest rates.
With 22.0 percent, Hessen is slightly behind the other federal states.

According to this, around 29.9 million doses of vaccine had been delivered by Sunday.
86.6 percent of these doses had been vaccinated by Monday.
The “Comirnaty” preparation from Biontech / Pfizer accounts for the largest share with just under 20.1 million doses.
Almost 6.8 million doses of “Vaxzevria” - the preparation from AstraZeneca - were delivered and another 2.7 million doses of Moderna's “Covid-19 Vaccine”.

According to the RKI, the number of reported Covid-19 cases in the
under-15
age group was
on Monday
1804
.
Compared to the previous week, that's a 37 percent increase.
The 7-day average was a record 3264. The proportion of U-15 cases (16.4 percent) is greater than the proportion of the population (13.8 percent).
However, it is unclear to what extent the test volume affects, i.e. the large number of rapid tests carried out in schools.

India
reported
323,144 new corona infections
on Tuesday
and thus more than 300,000 new cases within 24 hours for the sixth day in a row. However, the health authorities recorded a slight decrease compared to the previous day, when 352,991 new infections were recorded for the fifth day in a row, a global high.
The number of deaths increased by 2,771 to 197,894. However, experts fear that the actual number is likely to be significantly higher. Because numerous hospitals are overcrowded by the massive second corona wave and have to turn away Covid 19 patients because there is a lack of free beds and oxygen for treatment. Germany, the USA and other countries have announced aid. India, with its around 1.35 billion inhabitants, has the second most infections worldwide after the USA with more than 17.3 million confirmed infections.
More than five million people
in the
US
- or nearly 8 percent of those who received a first dose of Pfizer or Moderna vaccines - missed their second dose.
This is shown by the latest data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as the New York Times reported on Sunday.
The reasons why Americans do not notice their second vaccination vary: In interviews, some said they feared the side effects.
Others said they felt they would be adequately protected with a single vaccination.
However, a number of vaccine providers have also canceled their second dose appointments because they ran out of supplies or did not have the right brand in stock.
