The seven-day incidence continues to rise.

According to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) on Saturday morning, it was 32.7 - the previous day the value was 30.1, a week ago it was 21.2.

The health authorities in Germany reported 5644 new corona infections to the RKI within one day.

This is evident from the numbers from Saturday morning, which reflect the status of the RKI dashboard at 4:27 a.m.

A week ago, the value for Germany was 3206 infections.

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, 11 deaths were recorded across Germany within 24 hours.

A week ago there were 24 deaths.

The RKI has counted 3,816,285 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 3,677,800.

The number of people who died with or with a proven infection with Sars-CoV-2 rose to 91,864.

More than 205 million infections worldwide

More than 205.8 million people around the world have been shown to have contracted the coronavirus.

This is the result of a Reuters survey based on official data.

Thereafter, more than 4.5 million people have died from the virus since it was first detected in Wuhan, China, in December 2019.

After the US, Brazil has the most deaths at 566,896.

More than 20,285,000 cases of infection were detected there.

In India, 430,254 people died in connection with the virus in over 32.1 million infections.

It is the third highest death rate worldwide after the USA and India.

Intensive care physician: Include additional warning values

Intensive care physicians are calling on the federal and state governments to include additional warning values.

"In addition to the pure incidence value, the numbers of hospital admissions, new admissions to intensive care units and the occupancy of intensive care beds with Covid-19 cases must play a central role," said the President of the Interdisciplinary Association for Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine, Gernot Marx, of the newspaper According to the Rheinische Post.

It remains important that the death rate can only be reduced "if even more people protect themselves with a full vaccination."

150,000 violations of the reporting obligation
