Coronavirus crisis: Robert Koch Institute provides information on current case numbers from Germany

Several institutions provide regular information on the current number of infected and fatalities .

For this purpose, the institute based in Berlin uses the data that was electronically transmitted by the respective health authorities of the federal states and municipalities.
