Despite high corona incidences in the Free State - the hospital traffic light is green

But for the tightening of Corona * protective measures, the incidence is no longer the decisive value.

Rather, this is the hospital traffic light, which, according to the Ministry of Health in Munich, is still on green in the Free State.

At the traffic light, it is evaluated how many Covid-19 patients come to the hospitals or even have to go to the intensive care units.

The incidence figures are based on the RKI report from Friday morning, they can still change afterwards.
