96,367 corona cases were reported to the RKI yesterday.

This is the highest daily reading since August 2nd.

Compared to the previous week, there is an increase of no less than 90 percent.

The daily value is obviously distorted upwards by late registrations from Baden-Württemberg and Lower Saxony that have become due.

However, there was also an under-recording yesterday, which will make further late registrations necessary. For example, the state government in Stuttgart reports “technical disruptions”, while in Berlin three of the twelve districts have not provided any figures.

The 7-day incidence increases sharply again, from 410 to 466.

Today it is increasing in all 16 federal states.

High incidences of more than 500 were initially observed in Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland this autumn and shortly thereafter also in Hesse.

In the meantime, there has been a sharp increase in the rate of infection not only in Bavaria, but also in the other southern German states.

In a week-on-week comparison, the incidence in the southern federal states has increased more than in the north.

The number of urban and rural districts with a corona incidence of more than 500 was 24 out of 412 on Monday. On Wednesday it was 85, and today we have reached 183.

The 7-day average of the corona cases by more than 50 percent above the level of the previous week: the autumn wave has also achieved such dynamics in previous years.

But much later – namely on October 10, 2020 and October 28, 2021.

In 2022 we will be ready on September 30th.

140 corona deaths were reported to the RKI yesterday, 53 more than a week ago.

In total, we are at 490 deceased in the current week.

Every day we hear the new Corona case numbers. But what do they mean, where are we in the pandemic and what is the trend? Olaf Gersemann explains and evaluates the current figures briefly and concisely – every morning anew.
