If you look at the current corona map of the district incidences at the RKI, you will see a large gray spot.
Are there no infections here?
Ludwigslust - The Corona card * from the Robert Koch Institute *, which shows what the incidence looks like in the individual German districts, is getting redder and darker. The numbers have recently increased daily, there are only a few counties that are below an incidence of 50. What is also noticeable on closer inspection: The map also has gray spots in some areas. That would mean that there is no corona infection at all in these circles and the incidence would be 0.0.
Unfortunately, this does not apply to the Ludwigslust-Parchim district.
There is a technical error in the reporting system.
A failure of the electronic reporting system in the district currently prevents a correct preparation of the management report, according to the State Office Ludwigslust-Parchim.
Specifically, this is related to a hacker attack on the IT systems.
Coronavirus: Cyber attack in Ludwigslust-Parchim
"As a result of a cyber attack on October 15 at the municipal IT service provider KSM / SIS, all systems were shut down as a precaution," says the district's homepage, among other things. “This is why there are restrictions in the citizen service”, is explained further. The state capital of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Schwerin, the cities of Grabow, Ludwigslust, Neustadt-Glewe and Boizenburg as well as the administrative offices of Parchimer Umland, Strahlendorf and Zarrentin are also affected.
Since the value given on the map does not reflect the actual incidence, the Wittmund district in Lower Saxony continues to have the lowest incidence in Germany at 47.1. Generally speaking, the four lowest counties are in Lower Saxony. Heidekreis, Aurich and Friesland are also below a value of 70. In contrast, the districts with the highest incidences are in Saxony and Bavaria. The LK Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains (Saxony) is the sad leader in Germany with a value of 1303.1.
According to the SPD health expert Karl Lauterbach, the high incidences can only be limited by granting unvaccinated people only access to grocery stores, drugstores and pharmacies, as well as to the workplace.
When it comes to compulsory vaccinations for some professions, a statement by the Green parliamentary group leader Katrin Göring-Eckardt caused confusion.
