The seven-day incidence has risen again.
According to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) on Sunday morning, it was 74.1 - the previous day the value was 72.1, a week ago it was 54.5.
The health authorities in Germany reported 8,416 new corona infections to the RKI within one day, about 1,400 more than a week ago.
According to the new information, twelve deaths were recorded across Germany within 24 hours.
There had been three deaths a week ago.
The RKI has counted 3,932,547 detected infections with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.
The actual total number is likely to be significantly higher, as many infections are not detected.
The RKI stated the number of those who had recovered at 3 726 700.
The number of people who died with or with a proven infection with Sars-CoV-2 rose to 92,130.
So far, the incidence value has been the basis for many corona restrictions.
In the future, other values such as hospital admissions are to be taken more into account.
Despite the ban on some events, according to the police, several thousand demonstrators gathered in Berlin on Saturday to protest against the Corona policy.
There were numerous arrests.
