- The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) reported 14,714 new infections in 24 hours on Saturday, more than ever since the start of the pandemic.
- Due to a data leak in the RKI, the value could still include late registrations
- In addition to the number of cases, you will also find the current value for the crown reproduction number and the 7-day R-value here
The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) has Saturday morning 14,714 new infections in 24 hours reported, more than ever since the start of the pandemic. However, since there were occasional data gaps in the transmission of infection figures on Thursday, the latest number of new infections could contain corresponding late reports. Also on Saturday morning there were occasional inconsistencies in the figures given.
The number of deaths associated with the Covid-19 disease surpassed 10,000 on Saturday.
The RKI announced on Friday that the previous Thursday, due to a web server failure, no data had been transmitted from the health authorities to the responsible state authorities for a good three hours. The missing data would be automatically broadcast on Friday during the day and then appear in the post on Saturday. “Only then can you see how big the data gap is,” said RKI spokeswoman Susanne Glasmacher. Corona’s critical points in North Rhine-Westphalia were affected by the breakdown.

RKI’s Corona Box Numbers: An Overview
According to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), since the start of the Corona crisis At least 418,005 people in Germany have been shown to be infected with the Sars-CoV-2 virusas reported by the RKI (data status Oct 24).
According to the RKI, the number of deaths related to a corona infection was at Saturday morning at 10.003 – 49 more than the day before.
What is the R-value and how high is it currently?
The reproduction number, or R-value for short, was at Friday at 1.23 (Previous day: 1.11). If the R value is greater than 1, an infected person infects more than one person on average. The R value represents the infection that occurred about a week and a half ago. The RKI generally reports the current R-value at night.

The R-value is an important tool for estimating the infection rate. Indicates how many people a person infected with the pathogen infects during illness. If the value is less than 1, the number of new infections is reduced. If it is above this, the virus will spread further. Background:
This is how the reproduction number is calculated
Also, the RKI gives a 7-day R call in its management report. The value refers to a longer period of time and is therefore less subject to daily fluctuations. According to RKI estimates, this value is now 1.30 (previous day: 1.23). It shows the infection process from 8 to 16 days ago. Read here:

Coronavirus pandemic: RKI case numbers by federal state
When the federal states broadcast new daily states varies from country to country. There can even be several fluctuations in one day. Sometimes there are also errors in the transmission of the number of cases between the individual reporting offices. If a laboratory detects a case, it passes it on to the local health authority, from where the data goes to the state health authority. All reports from a federal state are grouped there and then collectively transmitted to the RKI.
Since the process of the so-called infectious disease notification system is not yet fully digitized, it may also happen that the data arrives at the RKI one day late.
The number of cases and the 7-day incidence of RKI calculated from them may therefore differ greatly from the figures published by state and local health authorities.
For individual federal states, the RKI relayed the following figures (infections detected and reported, data status Oct 24):
