China News Agency, Berlin, September 30 (Reporter Peng Dawei) As of the evening of the 30th local time, the cumulative number of people diagnosed with the new crown virus in Germany has exceeded 290,000.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel called on the people to continue to comply with the epidemic prevention regulations and said that he would do everything possible to avoid recurring nationwide blockade measures.

  According to a report from Germany's "Times Online", as of 20 o'clock on the 30th local time, Germany had a total of 291,054 confirmed cases, 25,610 cured, and 9,639 dead in Germany.

In the past seven days (September 23-29), 13,350 newly diagnosed cases were confirmed.

  Merkel made the above remarks when attending the general debate of the German Bundestag in Berlin that day.

  In her speech, Merkel once again urged the people to abide by the epidemic prevention regulations.

Merkel said that everyone, including her, is eager to get in touch with people, "but all the results of epidemic prevention we have achieved in the past few months are now at risk."

  In response to the epidemic prevention situation after entering the autumn and winter seasons, Merkel warned that Germany "is facing a difficult time."

She emphasized that the latest resolution reached by the federal government with the states on tightening epidemic prevention measures is correct, and that the domestic epidemic will not go out of control.

  "I will do everything I can to avoid the reappearance of nationwide blockade measures." Merkel said that responding to the new crown epidemic is a long-distance race, but she is sure that people will eventually return to their familiar living conditions. At times, family gatherings, nightclubs, theaters, and football stadiums will all be revived.

  German Federal Minister of Health Span said on the same day that in the future, Germans will be provided with more ways to receive new crown testing, including the option of self-testing at home.

He also said that the previously announced regional fever clinic is currently under construction.
