Daily corona statistics: They have been with us since the beginning of the pandemic.
At the end of 2020, one sad record followed the next.
The current focus is on the impact of the holidays.
Germany
has the
second wave of the
corona pandemic
hit much harder than the first.
The seven-day incidence, the number of deaths and the number of free intensive care beds are particularly important indicators.
You can now read all the news in our new ticker on the
corona pandemic in Germany
.
Update from January 10,
10:04 a.m
.: In the past 24 hours, the health authorities have
reported 16,946 new corona infections
and
465 further deaths
to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI).
Experience has shown that the number of corona cases is usually lower on Sundays because fewer tests are carried out on the weekends.
An interpretation of the data is currently difficult because around Christmas and the turn of the year, according to the RKI, corona cases were discovered, recorded and transmitted with a delay.
According
to the current data, the
7-day incidence
is
162.2
(previous day: 154),
reports
the RKI.
In
Saxony
(357.6) and
Thuringia
(314.0) this value is well above the average.
The number of
reproductions
- the
R value for
short
- is currently around
1
.
This emerges from the Covid-19 management report (as of January 9).
"Due to the very high number of infected people in Germany, this still means a high number of new infections every day," says the RKI management report.
The RKI expressly points out that the R value can be "interpreted to a limited extent".
The data on the previous public holidays would be transmitted and recorded with a delay.
5,311 Covid-19 patients
currently have to be
treated in
an
intensive care unit
(previous day: 5414).
3,046 of
these need artificial ventilation (previous day: 3,066).
This can be found in the DIVI intensive register (as of January 10, 10:31 a.m.).
At the moment, 3,953 intensive care beds are available.
So far,
532,878 people
have
received a first dose of the corona vaccination
in Germany, the RKI announced (data status: January 9).
Update from January 7th, 1.30 p.m.:
The number of
corona vaccinations
reported to the RKI
in Germany has
increased
by
more than 46,000
compared to the previous day
.
Since the start of the vaccination campaign at the end of December, the vaccine has now reached
at least 417,060 people
in Germany
been injected.
This total number results from previous reports from the federal states, as can be seen from
RKI
statistics from Thursday (as of 11 a.m.).
For every 1000 inhabitants nationwide, five people have been
vaccinated
against
Covid-19
so far
.
The
most vaccinations
per 1000 inhabitants were, according to the statistics so far for
Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
acquired (13.5), the fewest for
Thuringia
(2.5).
In absolute numbers,
Bavaria has
the highest value of
more than 84,000 vaccinated
.
The values available to the authorities of the individual federal states can be significantly higher than those
reported
by the
RKI
, as the reports are sometimes transmitted to the institute with some delay.
Most people - more than 201,000 - were
vaccinated
for work-
related
reasons
, according to RKI data
.
For example, it can be
doctors
and
nurses
with a very high risk of infection and staff in the
care of
the
elderly
.
In addition, the preparation has now been administered to
more than 168,000 residents of nursing homes
.
Corona numbers in Germany: RKI reports more than 26,000 new infections and 1,070 deaths
Update from January 7th, 6.35 a.m.:
The health authorities in
Germany
reported
26,391 new corona cases to
the Robert Koch Institute (RKI)
within one day.
In addition,
1070 new deaths were recorded
within 24 hours, as the RKI announced on Thursday morning.
The high of 1,129 new deaths was reached on December 30th.
Due to the delayed discovery, recording and transmission of corona cases over the holidays, an interpretation of the current RKI data remains difficult.
The
7-day incidence
for
Germany
was
121.8
on Thursday morning
.
With that it sank again, as in the last few days.
Saxony
had the highest incidences
with 269.8 and
Thuringia
with 232.4.
Bremen had
the lowest value
with 74.0.
Because of the holidays, the weekly values should also be assessed with caution.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, the RKI has counted a total of
1,835,038 proven corona infections
in
Germany
.
The total number of people suffering from or involving a proven infection with SARS-CoV 2
dead
are rising to
37,607
at.
The number of
convalescent
gave the RKI with about
1,474,000
on.
Corona numbers in Germany: RKI reports more than 20,000 new infections - 1019 new deaths
Update from January 6, 8:50 p.m.:
According to the RKI report from Wednesday, the
nationwide
seven-day R value
was
0.83
(Monday: 0.81).
This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 83 more people.
The value represents the
occurrence of
the
infection
8 to 16 days ago.
If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection process subsides.
The RKI emphasized that the R-value may be underestimated because of the delays.
Update from January 6, 8:20 a.m.:
The German health authorities
reported
21,237 new corona infections
to
the Robert Koch Institute (RKI)
within one day.
In addition,
1019 new deaths were recorded
within 24 hours, as the
RKI
announced on Wednesday morning.
An interpretation of the data remains difficult because around Christmas and the turn of the year corona cases were discovered, recorded and transmitted with a delay, according to the RKI.
According to the Association of Accredited
Laboratories
in Medicine (ALM), the
number of laboratory tests
had
fallen
again over the turn of the year compared to Christmas week
.
Compared to the week before Christmas, the number has roughly
halved
in the past week
.
"We expect that more people will be tested again at the beginning of the year with the opening of medical practices and test centers," said the first chairman of the association,
Michael Müller
, on Tuesday.
The RKI assumes that the
reporting data
on
the
occurrence of
the infection will
be resilient again
at the earliest at the end of next week / beginning of the week
after
next
, it said on request.
The
7-day incidence
for Germany was
127.3
on Wednesday morning
.
After yesterday's
Corona summit
, the target value of 50 is still a long way off.
The differences between the federal states remain large.
The highest incidences on Tuesday had
Saxony
with 262.1 and
Thuringia
with 244.6.
Bremen
had the lowest value
with 73.7.
Corona in Germany: RKI reports 11,897 new cases on Tuesday - almost 1000 deaths
Update from January 5, 9:32 p.m.:
An interpretation of the
coronavirus numbers
remains difficult because according to the RKI, corona cases were discovered, recorded and transmitted with a delay around Christmas and the turn of the year.
Chancellor Angela Merkel also emphasized at the federal-state press conference on Tuesday evening that clear data could only be determined from January 17th.
The fear of
subsequently increasing numbers
now seems to be confirmed.
On Tuesday evening, focus reported the figures sent by the federal states.
Accordingly, the
deaths
rise
to
1133
(as of 8:59 p.m.) and the number of new infections to
16,350
.
A sad record.
Update from January 5, 6:30 a.m.:
The health authorities in
Germany
reported
11,897 new corona infections to
the RKI
within one day.
This is evident from the current figures on the RKI dashboard from Tuesday morning.
In addition,
944 new deaths were recorded
during the same period.
An interpretation of the data remains difficult because around Christmas and the turn of the year
corona cases were
discovered, recorded and transmitted with a delay,
according to the
RKI
.
The
7-day incidence
on Tuesday was for the whole of
Germany
at a value of
134.7
.
This means that on the day of the
Corona summit one is
still a long way from the targeted 50 mark.
SPD health expert
Karl Lauterbach
recently called for the target to be reduced to a value of 25 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days.
The highest incidences on Tuesday had
Saxony
with 298.7 and
Thuringia
with 241.8.
Schleswig-Holstein
had the lowest value
with 77.1.
The
RKI has
counted
1,787,410
detected
infections
with the
coronavirus
in
Germany
since the start of the corona pandemic
.
The total number of people who died with or with a proven
infection with Sars-CoV-2
rose to a total of
35,518
.
The RKI stated the number of those who had recovered at around 1,424,700.
According to the RKI report on Monday, the
nationwide
seven-day R-value
was
0.85
(Sunday: 0.91).
This means that 100 infected people theoretically infect 85 more people.
Corona numbers in Germany: Reports on Monday are usually lower than on other days
First report from January 4th:
Munich - "The RKI estimates the overall health risk in Germany to be very high." This is what it says in the daily situation report of the
Robert Koch Institute (RKI)
for January 3rd.
The high nationwide case numbers would be caused by mostly “diffuse events, with numerous accumulations, especially in households and old people's and nursing homes”.
So the situation in Germany remains tense.
On Monday morning, the RKI
announced 9847 new corona infections
within one day.
Another 302 deaths were
recorded
during the same period
.
The high of 1,129 new deaths in one day was reached on December 30th.
The
seven-day incidence
, i.e. the number of new infections reported within seven days per 100,000 inhabitants, is
often of interest for political decisions
.
On Monday this value was
139.4
.
Many politicians and medical professionals want to reach a value of 50 as soon as possible, even better 25.
But the differences between the
federal states
are enormous: For Saxony the value is 323.0.
For Thuringia at 251.4.
These two countries are currently the sad leaders.
Schleswig-Holstein has the lowest value with 78.2.
Further figures at a glance
(source: RKI)
:
Total number of detected infections with Sars-Cov-2 in Germany:
1,775,513
Total number of people who died in connection with the virus in Germany:
34,574
Number of
recovered
:
1,401,200
The
nationwide seven-day R-value
on Sunday was
0.91.
Mathematically, 100 infected people infected 91 other people.
However, it depicts the infection process 8 to 16 days ago.
The RKI also emphasizes that the number may be underestimated due to delays.
Corona in Germany: Vaccinations are running - different numbers from the federal states
So far, almost
265,000 people
in Germany
have been vaccinated
, at least the number reported to the RKI.
This value could also be higher due to delay.
Compared to the previous day, that's over 22,000 more vaccinations.
However, this could include late registrations, which is why the number should not be seen as those actually vaccinated per day.
In terms of vaccinations per 1000 inhabitants, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (7.1), Saxony-Anhalt (6.1) and Hesse (5.3) are ahead.
The fewest vaccinations in relation to the number of inhabitants have so far been reported in Thuringia (0.4), Lower Saxony (0.7) and Saxony (1.2).
The national average is 3.2 vaccinations per 1000 inhabitants.
According to figures from the website of the German Interdisciplinary Association for Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine (DIVI)
(as of January 4, 2:19 p.m.)
,
5749 patients
are currently
in intensive care
.
There are therefore 4699 free beds.
Important note:
The current data cannot be interpreted without restriction.
The RKI points out that fewer people go to the doctor during the Christmas holidays, at the turn of the year and on the days around it, so fewer samples are taken and fewer laboratory tests are carried out.
Therefore, fewer cases would be reported to the health authorities.
In addition, it could be that not all authorities transmit values due to the holidays.
