New infections with coronavirus in Austria remain at a low level. In the past 24 hours, 29 new infections have been registered across Austria, according to figures from the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of the Interior (as of 9:30 a.m. Tuesday), which is far below the seven-day average of 89 cases per day. However, a data adjustment in Carinthia has a massive impact on the statistics. There, the figures were corrected downward by 35 cases.

Seven-day incidence also low
With the low number of cases, the seven-day incidence of cases per 100,000 inhabitants is also very low. It was exactly seven on Tuesday. If one takes out the data adjustments in Carinthia and in Salzburg, where the numbers were also adjusted downward by eight, and the case numbers for the two provinces are assumed to be zero, 72 new infections would have been recorded, which is still below the weekly average.

The number of people who died from or with Covid-19 was also adjusted. No additional deaths were added in the past 24 hours, and the number was adjusted downward by one in Vienna. That brings the total to 10,700 people who have died from or with Covid-19 since the pandemic began, with a seven-day average of 2.3. Over the past week, 16 Covid deaths have been added.

Currently, 2,040 active Corona cases in Austria.
As of Tuesday, there were still 2,040 active infections with SARS-CoV-2, down 38 from Monday. 68 people have recovered from a Corona infection in the past 24 hours, bringing the total recovered since the outbreak of the pandemic in Austria to 637,613.

185 patients were hospitalized with Covid 19 disease on Tuesday, up six from Monday. Of them, 57 were in intensive care units, two fewer than Monday and 19 fewer in a week.

In the past 24 hours, 491,902 PCR and rapid antigen tests were added, of which 71,319 were meaningful PCR tests. This brings the total to 68,638,003 Corona tests performed. The positive rate of PCR tests was 0.04 percent. This 24-hour figure was below last week’s average of 0.1 percent positive PCR tests.

47,904 Corona vaccinations administered Monday.
On Monday, 47,904 vaccinations were administered. According to E-vaccine passport data, 4,692,442 people in Austria have already received at least one partial vaccination: That is 52.5 percent of the population. 2,949,027, or 33 percent of Austrians, have already been fully immunized. It should be noted that the calculation based on population size was changed. Instead of the population figure from January 1, 2020, as was previously the case, the figure from January 1, 2021 is now used. The population size increased slightly last year, so the vaccination coverage rates in relation to the population size are a few tenths of a percentage point lower than before.

The highest first-time vaccination coverage rate is in Lower Austria, at 57.7 percent. In Burgenland, 57.2 percent of the population is vaccinated, and in Tyrol, 53.3 percent. After Vorarlberg (53), Carinthia (51.7), Styria (51.6), Salzburg (50.6) and Vienna (48.6), Upper Austria has replaced the federal capital as the laggard with a vaccination coverage rate of 48.5 percent.

Vienna with most new Corona infections on Tuesday
Vienna had the most new infections with 25, followed by Lower Austria with 18. In all other federal states, the numbers remained in single digits: seven were in Burgenland and Styria, six in Upper Austria, five in Tyrol and four in Vorarlberg. In Carinthia and Salzburg, there were the aforementioned data adjustments.
