These are preliminary figures. Numbers may change in the course of a day. Only case numbers transmitted electronically to the Robert Koch Institut (RKI) from health offices in federal states. Due to the reporting delay between known cases locally and transferring data to the RKI, there may be deviations compared to numbers currently published by federal states. * Not all deaths include additional age and gender information. Numbers may change in the course of a day.
