The Ministry of Health and the Ministry of the Interior today announced a new daily maximum level of new coronavirus infections. In the past 24 hours, 5,627 new cases have been reported (as of 9:30 a.m. today).
According to the ministries, 1,082 people have died nationwide as a result of Covid-19, 64,987 are considered to have recovered. At present, 1,803 are undergoing hospital treatment, 283 of them in intensive care units. Both figures rose again significantly in a 24-hour comparison.
7-day incidence at 254
The dashboard of the Agency for Health and Food Safety (AGES) has shown a further increase in the 7-day incidence. The new infections with the coronavirus in the past week are at 254 per 100,000 inhabitants (status: yesterday, 14.00 o’clock). This is an increase of 13 compared to the previous day. At least the increase was slightly lower than on the previous days.
According to federal states, Tyrol is ahead with 376, which is an increase of 38. Vorarlberg holds at 346, there the value even sank slightly. In Salzburg the value lies with 311, which corresponds to a plus of four. Upper Austria exceeded the 300 mark with 303. In addition to Vorarlberg, the figure also fell slightly in Vienna.
New Dashboard
The number of active coronavirus cases is 40,263 according to the AGES dashboard figures (as of 14:00 yesterday). The new dashboard recently replaced that of the Ministry of Health. This was accompanied by a leap in the number of those currently infected, as convalescents are registered more slowly in the new system.
In addition, new cases are no longer assigned to the time of registration, but to the time of laboratory diagnosis, which may have taken place days before. This makes the curve of the epidemic more accurate, but changes the number of newly reported infections, which was previously often used as a characteristic value, but is still communicated in the morning by the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Health
