Germany reports daily record of over 80,000 new COVID-19 cases

Robert Koch Institute also confirms 384 related deaths over past 24 hours

BERLIN (AA) - Germany on Wednesday reported more than 80,000 new coronavirus cases in a day, a new record since the pandemic began two years ago.

The Robert Koch Institute, the country's disease control agency, confirmed 80,430 new infections in the past 24 hours, and 384 coronavirus-related fatalities.

The recent surge was fueled by the more contagious omicron variant, but most of those infections were mild, not requiring hospitalization.

Germany’s hospitalization rate stood at 3.34 per 100,000 residents on Tuesday, much lower than the figures seen in previous waves.

But public health officials are warning that the omicron is spreading significantly faster than previous variants, and it could swamp the health care system if cases continue to climb dramatically in the coming days.
