Update from April 1,
8:42 a.m.: The corona mutation B.1.1.7 is increasing in dominance.
The variant, which was first discovered in Great Britain, has now achieved a share of 88 percent in Germany.
"Overall, VOC B.1.1.7 is now the predominant COVID-19 pathogen in Germany.
This is worrying because, according to previous knowledge, VOC B.1.1.7 is significantly more contagious and probably causes more severe disease processes than other variants, ”said the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) in the current Corona management report.
"The overall increase in the number of cases and the infections caused by B.1.1.7 will lead to a significantly higher number of hospitalizations," the RKI report continues.
Of the intensive care beds in Germany, 86 percent are occupied.
According to the DIVI intensive care register, 3,701 Covid-19 patients currently have to be treated in an intensive care unit, 2,048 of which are artificially ventilated.

If the 7-day R-value is below 1 for a longer period of time, the infection rate subsides;
if it is consistently higher, the number of cases increases.

Corona violations: police stop beach party with 150 young people
Update from April 1, 6.30 a.m
.: The police ended a party with around 150 young people in a lido in Neubrandenburg.
As the police announced on Thursday night, several callers from Neubrandenburg complained to the police about loud music on Wednesday evening.
The crew of a radio patrol car found that around 150 young people celebrated in the lido with loud music.
The police then moved in with a large contingent.
In more than 50 cases, the officers managed to determine the personal details.
The adolescents were reported to have violated the Corona state ordinance and illegal waste disposal, since according to the police, considerable pollution was found in the lido.

Corona hotspot Blaufelden: 7-day incidence over 1,100
Update from March 31, 6:12 p.m.:
Blaufelden is the new hotspot in Baden-Württemberg.
The community in the Schwäbisch Hall district replaced the town of Schrozberg.
On March 30, the seven-day incidence was 1,154.
An incredibly high incidence that is unparalleled in Germany.
In the week before March 30, 274 new infections were registered in the community of around 5,300 inhabitants.
That is why there has been a curfew in Blaufelden for more than a week, both during the day and at night.
Only the grocery stores and nurseries are open.
But how could such a high incidence value come about?
Mayor Petra Weber has a specific suspicion.
“The original source, we assume, were two kindergartens.
From there, the virus spread through families to school.
In the school alone, 29 children and three teachers are currently infected.
It takes time until the test result is there.
And then it happened, "she told the news magazine
Der Spiegel
.
Weber suspects that the corona virus came into the facilities through the children.
“Then the educators and the management became infected.
We cannot answer who was the first, ”she explained.
According to their information, the disease is "probably relatively harmless" in the children.
A person over 80 died in connection with the corona virus.
Update from March 31, 4:04 p.m
.: The confusion about the Astrazeneca corona vaccine is getting bigger and bigger.
On Tuesday (March 30), the federal and state governments limited vaccinations to people over the age of 60 after reports of thrombosis cases.

The British corona mutation B.1.1.7. * Has now taken over the helm.
The variant is considered more contagious and also more dangerous.
The good news: According to the Robert Koch Institute * (RKI), the corona vaccines work against this worrying virus variant.
Science speaks of VOC.
The abbreviation stands for variants of concern - including the variants discovered in South Africa and Brazil.
So far, these two have hardly played a role in Germany.
The bad news: The rate of vaccination in Germany is slow in view of the rapid spread of B1.1.7.
too slow.
Can this trend still be slowed down?

Corona: Incidence in the city of Tübingen is increasing - Palmer is suspending day tickets for guests
The city of Tübingen (Baden-Württemberg) has set up the model project “Opening with Safety” with quick tests.
Since March 16, people in Tübingen can have themselves tested free of charge at several stations.
A stroll, theater or museum is possible with a negative corona test.
Now Tübingen's Lord Mayor Boris Palmer (Greens) is pulling the rip cord again because of the large influx of foreign guests to his city.
From April 1, these Corona day tickets are limited to people in the Tübingen district or who work in the city.
External guests no longer receive a day ticket.
The regulation only applies until Easter Monday.
"There are just too many people coming into the city from out of town at the moment," said Palmer in the SWR.
The model experiment loses its informative value.
Before that, there was criticism.
The flagship project is now developing into a problem case.
The number of corona cases is increasing sharply in the city of Tübingen.
In the Tübingen district *, the 7-day incidence is currently 110.2 (as of March 31, 3:08 a.m. - RKI Covid Dashboard).
In the university city of Tübingen, the weekly value is 78.7.
The SWR reports.
An increase in the incidence values caused a stir in the past few days.
The district only publishes weekly corona case numbers for its communities, including the city of Tübingen.
There are no up-to-date figures on the situation on the Tübingen website.
On March 26, the 7-day incidence in the city was 42.6.
Incidence is also increasing in the city of Tübingen - Baden-Württemberg is examining model project
The model project Tübingen is planned until April 18th.
Now there is a harsh headwind.
"Should Tübingen continue to have increasing incidences and steadily approach 100 or even exceed this mark per 100,000 inhabitants, the extent to which the project must be suspended," said a spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Stuttgart on Wednesday, reports the news agency dpa.
Against this background and also due to the increasing number of infections in the middle of the third wave of pandemics, the ministry is currently not thinking of designating further model projects.
