After France, Spain and Great Britain, Germany is the fourth major European country to see the prospect of a very complicated cold season. The Robert Koch epidemiological surveillance institute has recorded nearly 2,300 new infections in the last 24 hours, the highest figure since April 24. However, the data must be contextualized, because the country is carrying out double the tests compared to that period, but the alert is high in two of the largest Lander, North Rhine-Westphalia and Bavaria. If we add to these data those coming from Italy, which is recording a surge in deaths and an increase in intensive care, it is easy to predict that all of Europe will have to prepare itself in the best possible way to avoid a new collapse of its health systems. Even at the cost of restoring lockdowns, perhaps only targeted.

Provided that the situation does not worsen further – in the last 24 hours the second consecutive record of new infections, over 4,400 – and the blockade returns to the national level. Boris Johnson, now resigned to an “inevitable second wave”, will spend the weekend with the thankless task of evaluating further tight.
