Germany: Recorded the highest number of deaths in 24 hours since February

Germany today recorded the highest number of deaths from Covid-19 since February in 24 hours as the country battles to stop the fourth wave of the pandemic.

A total of 69,601 new cases were reported, 2,415 more than a week ago, and another 527 people died – the highest number since February 12 – bringing the total death toll to 104,047, the Robert Koch Institute said in a statement. the country’s epidemiological surveillance body.

However, the incidence of seven days with cases per 100,000 population continued to decline, to 427 today from 432 yesterday, Tuesday.

Experts question whether this means that Germany has reached the peak of this pandemic wave or whether the numbers are unreliable because some health authorities are overburdened, especially in the worst-hit areas.

Germany agreed last week to allow the unvaccinated to access only basic necessities, such as groceries, pharmacies and bakeries, and to intensify the vaccination campaign.
