Chancellor Angela Merkel has issued a warning about the mutated viruses.
Despite the falling numbers, citizens still have to be “very, very careful,” said Merkel in a government statement in the Bundestag.
Experts are certain that it is only a matter of time before the mutants displaced the original virus.
This is a "very real danger".
Merkel also sees major failures in dealing with the pandemic last autumn.
In the summer of 2020, a reasonably normal life was possible again in Germany, says Merkel in a government statement in the Bundestag.
"Then we were not careful enough and not fast enough." Politicians have neglected to shut down public life early and consistently with the increase in the number of infections.
The fact that the numbers exploded in such a way was "a result of hesitant action".
