The coronavirus spreads further in Germany. In the meantime, infections have been reported from almost all federal states. The authorities are trying to isolate those affected and thus interrupt the chain of infection – but that this will be completely successful is questionable. The Federal Government has set up a crisis team led by Federal Minister of Health Jens Spahn (CDU) and Federal Minister of the Interior Horst Seehofer (CSU), and the authorities and institutions involved are also in close contact in the regions concerned.
In our graphic you can see how the number of infections has developed in Germany since the end of February:
The focus of the current infection was initially North Rhine-Westphalia, but now the virus Sars-CoV-2 has also been reported from many other regions. Previously, the first cases of infected Chinese returnees and those related to the auto supplier Webasto in Bavaria became known. From the end of January, a total of 14 employees or their relatives had contracted Covid-19 there. They had mild flu-like symptoms and have since been able to leave the hospital (read more about this here at stern),
