Berlin - High

seven-day incidences

and the debate about the curfew regulation recently made headlines in Berlin.

All of Berlin has now passed the 50 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants.

In all of Germany, however, as in many European countries, the number of cases is rising immensely.

Concern about the second coronavirus wave * is omnipresent.

In Berlin, some people despite the critical situation still think of

party

make.

Coronavirus in Berlin: immensely high seven-day incidence

According to the current situation report from the city of Berlin, the

number of new corona infections rose

by 302 on Sunday.

This means that the trend towards Friday (676 new infections) and Saturday (363 new infections) has improved, but not all health authorities transmit their data on the weekend.

In addition, Berlin registered two more deaths related to the corona virus *.

While the

corona traffic lights

for the

4-day R-value

with 1.19 and the

occupancy of the intensive care beds

with 5.3 percent are in the green area, a look at the

seven-day incidence

is particularly

worrying.

For the whole of Berlin, this value is 86.9, well above the limit of 50 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants.

In individual districts, however, the figure is significantly higher.

Coronavirus in Berlin: People party despite the high number of cases - "Don't you know what's at stake?"

Meanwhile, the

curfew

debate is causing a

stir

in the catering industry

.

The

Berlin administrative court

has overturned the curfew decided by the Senate because of the Corona * pandemic.

Eleven restaurateurs had

submitted

urgent motions

against the decision.

The Berlin Senate then initially failed in an attempt to enforce the curfew across the capital. 

On Saturday, SPD politician

Dilek Kalayci spoke

to the public in clear terms on this subject via Twitter.

“To operators of restaurants who, by taking legal action against curfew after 11 p.m., think they can win something:

don't you know what is at stake?

Lockdown with serious economic consequences!

"

To operators of # restaurants who believe they are gaining something by taking legal action against the #closing hour from 11 p.m.: Don't you know what is at stake?

#Lockdown with serious economic consequences!

To prevent this from happening, they also share responsibility! #Corona

However, it didn't seem to make much of an impression.

As 

bz-berlin.de

 reports, parties without masks and without the necessary minimum distance should also have taken place on the weekend.

According to the report, the "Club OST" celebrated close together.

However, the party reportedly ended at 10 p.m., according to regulations.

In the "ASeven", a club in 

Berlin Mitte

, the party is said to have ended around 2.30 am.

Meanwhile, the last metropolis in Germany has also become a risk area.
