According to the Robert Koch Institute, the German government's disease control agency, 9,801 people died in the first three weeks of this month, almost twice as many as in November. Corona claimed the lives of 5,796 people in the country last month. Where 964 people died in October and 190 in September.
Over the last few days, about 500 people are dying daily. With that, the number of victims is increasing by 30,000. A nationwide lockdown was launched last week to stem the tide of infection. Although its effect is not yet seen. All in all, the praise that the European country received for curbing the rate of infection and death compared to others in the first wave of the Corona is now being challenged.
A total of 7,896 people died in Corona in Germany from last March to May; Which is much less than other countries in Europe like France, Italy, Spain, England. Classes of educational institutions, all non-essential shops and businesses have been closed due to the newly imposed lockdown. A maximum of five members of the two families have been allowed to reunite.
However, on the occasion of Christmas from 24th to 26th December, it is to be relaxed a bit. Meanwhile, according to previous plans, the coronavirus vaccine is scheduled to start in Germany from December 27. Although 100% of the population will have to wait at least a year to be covered by this vaccine.
