Germany's seven-day coronavirus incidence rate reached has 100 infections per 100,000 people for the first time since May, following a surge in cases in recent weeks.
The number hit 100 after rising from 68.7 just eight days ago, the Robert Koch health institute (RKI) said, according to AFP.
The upwards trend “became visible in almost all age groups over the past week and it is to be expected that the increase in case numbers will pick up speed in the further course of autumn and winter,” health ministry spokesman Oliver Ewald said.
