Corona in Germany: the seven-day incidence rises again - RKI reports a value of 80.2

It is considered an important tool within the corona pandemic: the seven-day incidence.

According to the RKI, it will rise again on Friday, September 3, 2021.

With a value of 80.2, the value shows how many people are currently infected with the corona virus per 100,000 inhabitants within Germany.

The previous day the value was 76.9, a week ago it was 70.3.

And the new corona infections also rose again on Friday, according to official information, a total of 14,251 people have been infected with the corona virus within the past 24 hours.

A week ago, the value was 12,029 new infections.

The number of deaths rose sharply on Friday, the RKI reported 45 cases in which people died from or with the corona virus, according to official information.

A week earlier, the value was 14 deaths.

Corona in Germany: Incidence of hospitalization is falling slightly

If the seven-day incidence was previously an important tool for assessing the corona pandemic, attention should also be paid to other parameters in the future.

For example, the RKI has recently started reporting the number of hospital admissions in its daily status report.

The seven-day hospitalization incidence indicates how many admissions of Covid 19 patients in inpatient treatment per 100,000 inhabitants were reported in seven days. On Thursday, the RKI gave the value in the management report as 1.74 (previous day 1.81). A nationwide threshold value from when the situation can be viewed critically is not provided for the incidence of hospitalization, among other things because of large regional differences.



The previous high was around 15.5 around Christmas time. The seven-day incidence is calculated according to RKI information on the basis of the reporting date to the local health department. According to this, an average of about ten days elapse between an infection and hospitalization, so the hospitalization incidence reflects the infection situation with a noticeable delay.
