With the increased incidence, Berlin has also reached the highest value of all federal states.

The Corona traffic light
In order to include a more meaningful indicator in the Corona traffic light, the relative change in the seven-day incidence was replaced by the hospitalization incidence. The seven-day incidence and the occupancy of the intensive care beds remain unchanged.
► According to the management report, the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants – equivalent to the seven-day incidence for all of Berlin – is 1593.4 (previous day: 1464.5) – the traffic light is RED.
► The seven-day hospitalization incidence is 15.6 (previous day: 16.8) – the traffic light is RED.
This indicator shows how many people per 100,000 inhabitants were hospitalized after a corona infection within a week. The indicator is green when the value is below 4. From 4 the traffic light switches to yellow, at 8 to red.
► The utilization of the intensive care beds by corona patients is 17.2 percent (previous day: 16.8 percent) – the traffic light is YELLOW.
The yellow limit here is 5 percent, and this traffic light also turns red at 20 percent.
