The seven-day incidence continues to rise. According to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) from Sunday morning, it was 22.6 - the previous day the value was 21.2, at the latest low a month ago it was 4.9. The health authorities in Germany reported 3127 new corona infections to the RKI within one day. This is evident from the numbers that reflect the status of the RKI dashboard at 4:10 a.m. A week ago, the value for Germany was 2097 infections. The number of confirmed infections rose by 49 percent within a week.
Hamburg reported the highest incidence with a value of 49.2 infections per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days.
Schleswig-Holstein (40.8) and Berlin (37.9) followed.
The lowest incidences were recorded in Thuringia (6.3), Saxony-Anhalt (7.2) and Saxony (7.6).
Four more deaths
The incidence has so far been the basis for many corona restrictions in the pandemic, for example as part of the federal emergency brake that expired at the end of June.
In the future, other values such as hospital admissions are to be taken into account to a greater extent.
According to the new information, four deaths were recorded across Germany within 24 hours.
It had been a death a week ago.
The RKI has counted 3,790,766 detected infections with Sars-CoV-2 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 3,665,400.
The number of people who died with or with a proven infection with Sars-CoV-2 rose to 91,782.
