The number of new coronavirus infections in Germany has increased by 2034, reports the Robert Koch Institut (RKI), the German sister organization of the RIVM on Saturday.
That number is the highest number of new infections identified within 24 hours since the end of April.
In Germany, the number of infections is now at 232,082. The number of deaths from Covid-19 has risen by 7 to 9,267, according to the institute.
The number of infections has risen suddenly in recent days.
The increase is attributable to returning holidaymakers from risk areas and the rise in the number of tests taken.
