In Germany, health authorities have submitted 21,695 new corona infections to the Robert Koch Institute. Seven days ago there were just under 23,000 new cases.
The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) reports 21,695 new infections, lower figures than a week ago. Last Saturday the figure was 22,964. The peak was reached on Friday a week ago (November 20) with 23,648 reported cases. Health authorities also reported 379 new deaths in one day.
The trend in the number of daily deaths had recently increased, which was also expected after the sharp increase in new infections. The total number of people who died with or with a proven Sars-CoV-2 infection rose to a total of 15,965. The RKI has counted a total of 1,028,089 infections detected with Sars-CoV-2 in Germany since the beginning of the pandemic. It is estimated that around 711,000 people have recovered.
According to RKI’s management report on Friday night, the so-called seven-day R-value was 0.93 (previous day: 0.90). This means that, in theory, 100 infected people infect 93 other people. The value represents the onset of infection 8-16 days ago. If the value is below 1 for a long time, the infection rate decreases.
