Berlin (dpa / bb) - In Berlin, the number of new corona infections per 100,000 inhabitants is again below the important 100 mark within a week.

According to the health administration's management report on Saturday, the current value is 97.2.

The day before it was just over the threshold at 101.3.

At the beginning of March, the federal and state governments agreed on a so-called emergency brake: “If the 7-day incidence per 100,000 inhabitants on three consecutive days in a federal state or region rises to over 100, the rules will apply from the second following working day valid until March 7th, back in force (emergency brake). "

The Berlin Corona traffic light continues to show red for this factor. In contrast, it is still green for the so-called R value.

It indicates how many people are infected on average by one infected person.

According to the current management report, the R value is now 1.04, after 1.00 the day before.

It has to be permanently below 1 so that the pandemic is slowed down.

There was little change with regard to the Berlin hospitals: 16.4 percent of the intensive care beds are currently occupied by Covid 19 patients (previous day: 16.5 percent).

The traffic light is yellow here.

With 286 newly reported cases, the number of infections in Berlin has risen to 138,218.

128 612 of these people are now considered to have recovered.

Another 6 people died in connection with the corona pandemic in Berlin.

The number of deaths increased to 2991.

At the weekend there is usually not so much testing, and late reports from the health authorities are also possible.
