Since the beginning of the pandemic, the RKI has counted 2,275,394 detected infections with Sars-CoV-2 in Germany (as of February 6, 00:00).

The actual total number is likely to be significantly higher as many infections are not detected.

The total number of people who died with or with the involvement of a proven infection with Sars-CoV-2 rose to 61,286. The RKI stated the number of those who had recovered at around 2,020,900.

The nationwide seven-day R-value was 0.93 according to the RKI situation report from Friday evening (previous day 0.89).

This means that 100 infected people infect 93 other people.

The value represents the occurrence of the infection 8 to 16 days ago.

If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection process subsides.
