The Corona summit with Chancellor Merkel is imminent.

First of all, the Bavarian state parliament is still discussing.

Munich - The Bavarian authorities reported 369 new Corona * cases to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI *) within 24 hours.

The seven-day incidence * on Tuesday was 74.7 (as of February 9, 12 a.m.).

Nationwide, according to the RKI figures, the seven-day incidence is below the threshold of 75 for the first time in more than three months. The RKI gave the important value of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants in seven days in the early morning at 72.8, but then limited it later one that around 600 cases from North Rhine-Westphalia were missing.

The value is therefore too low by 0.8, but is still below 75. The missing data from NRW would be taken into account on Wednesday.

The political goal is a seven-day incidence below 50 in the long term.

Corona in Bavaria: 25 districts and cities below the limit value - but the Corona hotspot is in the Free State

According to the current figures, 25 districts and urban districts in Bavaria were below the incidence value of 50 - four but still over 200. The district of Tirschenreuth had the highest value with 392.8.

This makes it the front runner nationwide.

The fewest new infections within a week based on the number of inhabitants were in the district of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen with an incidence of 22.6.

In Bavaria, 80 new deaths in connection with a corona infection were also reported within one day.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, 414,332 infections and 11,226 deaths have been reported in the Free State.

Before Corona summit with Merkel: Bavarian state parliament discussed - FDP wants to increase pressure on Söder

Before the federal and state governments discuss how to proceed in the corona crisis on Wednesday, the Bavarian state parliament will debate it on Tuesday (February 9, 2 p.m.).

In a current hour, the FDP wants to increase the pressure on Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU *) to loosen the lockdown in Bavaria.

In particular, the opposition faction threatens to file a lawsuit against the night curfew if the state government wants to extend it beyond the weekend.

On Wednesday, the federal and state governments will discuss possible easing - against the background of falling numbers of new infections, but growing concern about the spread of the mutated virus species.

The Bavarian cabinet wants to decide on Thursday and the state parliament on Friday.

CSU boss Söder is known for a rather cautious course, he repeatedly warns against hasty easing.

Lauterbach on Corona and Söder: "I'm happy about everyone who goes along"

He often has a view similar to that of Karl Lauterbach.

Would the SPD health expert have thought that he would ever have so many overlapping opinions with Markus Söder?

“No, of course I wouldn't have thought that, but we often rate things very similarly,” Lauterbach said in an interview with

Merkur.de.

“I'm happy about everyone who goes with me.

It's not just Söder, I almost always have the same opinion with SPD Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig and I also exchange ideas very intensively with other Prime Ministers and the Federal Chancellery. "

Corona easing in Austria: Söder sounds the alarm - Lauterbach also warns

Meanwhile, anger about Austria's corona policy is growing in Bavaria.

Markus Söder raised the alarm in a conversation with our editorial team.

He thinks it is “worth discussing that Austria allows extensive openings in this uncertain situation, although the incidence there is significantly higher than in Bavaria.” Lauterbach sees it similarly: “I can only agree with the criticism of the CSU.

What Austria is doing here is also very dangerous for Germany.

Border controls are imperative and closings are the way to go when needed.

We have to keep the South African variant away with all our might, because the current vaccinations are of little help.

I am very concerned that we will find ourselves in a difficult situation, ”he warned in an interview with

Merkur.de.
