As “Business Insider” reported Wednesday night, a joint readiness group will draft a resolution motion by Dec. 13. This must then be approved in a circular resolution or conference call.
According to “Business Insider”, there were numerous discussions between the countries behind the scenes on Tuesday and Wednesday. The seven states led by the SPD, as well as Thuringia and Baden-Württemberg, rejected a new summit. In his opinion, the necessary regional tightening at critical points in the crown is already possible, but has not been implemented for too long, especially in the south and in Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt.
In light of a new record number of krone deaths, Merkel urged extensive closures around the turn of the year on Wednesday, but also called for short-term countermeasures, such as an earlier start of school holidays before the holidays.

Maximum number of new infections
The number of new coronavirus infections has reached a peak in Germany. Health authorities reported 23,679 new corona infections to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) within 24 hours, according to figures from Thursday morning. The previous record was reached on November 20 with 23,648 reported cases. In the previous week there were 22,046 new cases on Thursday.
The death toll surpassed the 20,000 mark. The RKI recorded 440 new deaths in one day on Thursday. The day before, a maximum of 590 deaths had been reported. The number of daily deaths has tended to rise recently, which was expected after the sharp increase in new infections. The total number of people who died with or with a proven SARS-CoV-2 infection increased to 20,372.
In total, the RKI has counted 1,242,203 infections detected with SARS-CoV-2 in Germany since the beginning of the pandemic (until December 10, 00:00). Around 922,100 people are estimated to have recovered.
The seven-day R-value nationwide was 0.99 based on RKI’s status report on Wednesday night (previous day: 1.02). This means that, in theory, 100 infected people infect 99 more people. The value represents the appearance of the infection 8 to 16 days ago. If it is below 1 for a long time, the infection rate decreases.
