The corona virus pandemic is challenging governments and citizens. But there is also news that is positive.

  • China has not reported any new Covid 19 cases for the second day in a row.
  • A message from Germany also gives hope.
  • Out of 246,276 reported Covid-19 infections, 246,276 people are considered to have recovered. They had completely recovered from the Sars CoV-2 infection. And there is more information that is positive.

    No new infections in China, relatively few deaths in Germany

    China reported no new infections nationwide for the second day in a row. This does not apply to returnees: As the world reported, 34 new "imported cases" were registered, that is, diseases that were detected in people entering China. The population is nevertheless relieved of the success that the strict exit bans and quarantine measures have given them . Of 81,250 infected people in China, 71,266 people are considered healthy again.

    In Germany, younger people are more often infected with Sars-CoV-2

    The virus has been spreading in Germany for around two weeks. In 16,290 cases reported since then, there were 44 deaths, especially within the risk groups *. A small number compared to other countries, so far in Italy more than eight percent of those affected have died, in Germany 0.3 percent of Covid 19 patients have died , as reported by the Tagesschau. Why the numbers differ so drastically is still being investigated. One explanation could be that more older people were infected with the virus in Italy: on average, Italian patients were 63 years old, in Germany 47 years.

    However, severe courses are also observed in younger people. In order to slow down the spread as much as possible, the Federal Government calls on social contacts to be avoided as far as possible and, if possible, to work from home.
