Corona in Germany: Incidence is falling again - concerns remain
The numbers also fell slightly in Bavaria, which was badly affected.
On Wednesday only five districts were above the incidence value of 500, the previous day it had been seven.
The front-runners in Germany-wide comparison are still the districts of Miesbach (682.8) and Mühldorf am Inn (618.1) in Upper Bavaria.
In Bavaria, the state government today wants to adopt tougher measures in the fight against the fourth corona wave.
Chancellor Angela Merkel, who is still in office, would like to see tougher measures and a quick reaction from the country leaders.
However, several prime ministers had already rejected another federal-state summit.
In view of the sometimes tense regional situation in the intensive care units, Angela Merkel had called for stricter rules for unvaccinated people.
She received encouragement from health expert Karl Lauterbach, among others, who sees the "social gathering in the run-up to Christmas" endangered by the increasing numbers, as he
said
in the
Rheinische Post
.
Therefore, the public areas should now be regulated more closely with the 2-G rule.
