This news ticker on the subject of Corona in Germany is updated regularly.
According to the RKI situation report from Tuesday evening, the nationwide 7-day R-value * is 0.71 (previous day: 0.76).
The R-value reflects the occurrence of the infection 8 to 16 days ago.
In purely mathematical terms, 100 infected people infect 71 other people.
If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection process subsides;
if it is consistently higher, the number of cases increases.
Berlin
- The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) reported 3,254 new corona infections and 107 other deaths in Germany on Wednesday morning.
The 7-day incidence * nationwide is 20.8 (previous day: 22.9; previous week: 36.8)
Corona in Germany: Drosten expects an increasing number of cases after the summer
The virologist Christian Drosten expects the number of corona cases to rise again after the summer.
“Of course the number of cases will rise again towards winter. This can also happen in autumn. But that will happen every winter from now on, ”said Drosten on Tuesday in the“ Coronavirus Update ”podcast (NDR info). The situation is then changed by the expected effect of the vaccinations on the course of the disease: If one were to strictly only measure laboratory evidence, one would see a kind of fourth wave. But then it is no longer a pandemic wave. Drosten had previously stated several times that he expected in the long term that Sars-CoV-2 would behave like the well-known corona viruses that cause colds.
At the same time, the head of virology at the Berlin Charité warns of setbacks in the corona vaccination campaign.
One must be careful that people do not become careless in the future and, for example, no longer pick up the second vaccination because they no longer feel like it or it is too complicated.
“Things like that just can't happen.
I think that will be the next big task. "
