BERLIN: Germany’s national disease control agency recorded an increase in coronavirus infections of 2,297 on Saturday, the highest in a 24-hour period since April.
The increase is still far from the levels seen at the country’s peak in late March, when more than 6,000 cases were being confirmed daily.
Daily infection rates fell during the summer but started increasing again in July, and spiked above 2,000 one day in August.
Since the outbreak reached Germany, 270,070 people have been infected with the virus, according to the government’s Robert Koch Institute (RKI).
Six people died of COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus, during the last 24 hours, bringing Germany’s death toll to 9,384. (DPA)
