Important information:
When reporting cases from the health authorities through the responsible state authorities to the RKI, there is a delay in reporting and transmission of several days, both for the raw case numbers and the 7-day incidence rates. The discrepancies also arise from different data collection times as well as various transmission routes. COVID-19 cases that meet the RKI case definition must be electronically transmitted by the responsible health authority to the responsible state authority no later than the next working day, and by the state competence center for infection epidemiology (LKI) anonymized to the RKI no later than the next working day.
The basis for the case numbers reported by the RKI are the notifications from the health authorities up to midnight of the previous day. The basis for the case numbers from the MASFG are the notifications up to 4 p.m. of the previous day. All transmitted figures represent current and preliminary data. Changes are reserved.
