The corona situation is coming to a head again: In Germany, the incidence has reached the new high of 277.4.
Berlin - The nationwide seven-day incidence has again risen to a high.
The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) gave the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants and week on Saturday morning at 277.4.
For comparison: the previous day the value was 263.7, a week ago it was 183.7 (previous month: 65.4).
The health authorities in Germany reported 45,081 new corona infections to the RKI within one day.
This is evident from the numbers that reflect the status of the RKI dashboard at 4:21 am.
On Thursday, the number of new infections had reached 50,196, a record since the pandemic began.
Exactly one week ago the value was 34,002 infections.
According to the new information, 228 deaths were recorded across Germany within 24 hours.
A week ago there were 142 deaths.
The RKI has counted 4,987,971 detected infections with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.
The actual total number is likely to be significantly higher, as many infections are not detected.
Clinic parameter increases slightly
The number of corona patients admitted to clinics per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days - the most important parameter for a possible tightening of the corona restrictions - was given by the RKI on Friday as 4.70 (Thursday: 4.65).
With the indicator it must be taken into account that hospital admissions are sometimes reported with delay.
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.
