New Covid-19 infections in Germany have reached their highest level in nearly three months amid a steady rise powered by the delta variant, AP reports.
The national disease control center, the Robert Koch Institute, said Saturday that 51.6 new cases per 100,000 residents were reported over the last seven days. It’s the first time since May 25 that the infection rate has been above 50, but it has been increasing since hitting a low of 4.9 in early July.
Official figures showed that 63.8 per cent of Germany's population had received at least one vaccine dose as of Thursday and 58.5pc was fully vaccinated.
