China News Agency, Berlin, October 8 (Reporter Peng Dawei) The German disease control agency announced on the 8th that the number of newly diagnosed new crown virus infections reached 4,058, which is the first time since April that it exceeded 4,000.
On the same day, the new crown epidemic detection indicators in the three major cities of Berlin, Frankfurt and Bremen all exceeded the official warning line.
The German Federal Agency for Disease Control and Prevention Robert Koch Institute announced 4,058 new cases that day.
According to a report from Germany's "Times Online", as of 18:40 local time on the 8th, Germany had a total of 312,487 confirmed cases, 269,618 cured, and 9,731 deaths.
In the past seven days (October 1-October 7) 17,477 newly diagnosed cases were confirmed.
In response to the number of newly diagnosed cases exceeding 4,000 that day and setting a new high in the number of confirmed cases in a single day since April, the Minister of the German Chancellery Braun stated that he has seen Germany at the beginning of the second wave of the epidemic.
German Health Minister Span said that this figure worries him highly. He called on the public to stay vigilant and urged the hot spots of the epidemic to take measures to prevent the situation from getting out of control.
Wyler, director of the Robert Koch Institute, warned that there is currently the possibility of losing control of the spread of the virus, and if this is the case, Germany "may face a situation where more than 10,000 new cases are added every day."
It is worth noting that the important epidemic monitoring index of "the number of newly diagnosed cases per 100,000 people in the past seven days" in the German capital Berlin, Frankfurt, the largest financial center, and Bremen, an important port city in the north, has exceeded the "50" level. The cordon was 52.8, 59.1 and 57.6 respectively.
Prior to this, Berlin and Frankfurt had announced curfew measures.
On the 7th, the states and the federal government reached a resolution that people in high-risk areas must provide a negative nucleic acid test report within 48 hours when traveling in the future.
However, in the appendix to the resolution, five states, including Berlin, expressed different opinions.
In order to coordinate the current epidemic prevention measures in major cities, German Chancellor Merkel will hold a video conference with the mayors of 11 major cities in Germany to discuss.
