- The head of the German Hospital Association is pressing the government to reintroduce a mask mandate indoors since a high number of COVID-19 infections has made normal hospital operations “no longer possible.”
- Experts believe the number of infections is likely higher because many no longer take a PCR test to find out if they have COVID-19 so are not appearing in official statistics.
- At the same time, because many in Germany were vaccinated or already recovered from COVID, the number of those falling seriously ill or dying is much less than it was.
