Corona in Germany: RKI reports almost 250,000 new infections - two other values ​​are increasing rapidly

With a nationwide seven-day incidence of 1465.4, the value of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants and week on Thursday, February 10, 2022, reached a new previous record.

For comparison: the day before the value was 1450.8, a week ago it was 1283.2 (previous month: 362.7).

And the number of new infections climbs again over 200,000, the RKI counted a total of 247,862 new corona infections on Thursday.

A week ago there were 236,120 infections.

However, the figures are only of limited significance.

Experts assume a high number of cases that are not recorded in the RKI data.

Test capacities and health authorities are at the limit in many places, contacts are only traced to a limited extent.

In addition, the planned prioritization of PCR tests is likely to increase the number of people who no longer have their infection confirmed by a PCR test - so that it is not included in the official statistics.

Corona: The number of deaths and the incidence of hospitalization are also increasing sharply

The number of deaths has risen sharply compared to the previous week.

According to the new information, 238 deaths were recorded across Germany within 24 hours.

A week ago there were 164 deaths.

And the number of corona-infected patients who came to clinics per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days is rising sharply, the RKI gave the value on Wednesday at 6.02 (Tuesday: 5.60).

These may also include people with a positive corona test who have another main illness.
