germany's federal health agency, the robert koch institute, also reports some other worrying trends. above all, the growing proportion of coronavirus cases among older age groups and more outbreaks in senior and nursing homes. in light of the situation, the german government decided this week to extend the partial lockdown until december 20th. people in berlin think it was the right thing to do. i think it's good that we have these measures the incidence rates. so i think that what we're doing in the right direction of india until i think that if we just follow these simple measures, wear masks, keep our distance, don't travel when it's not really necessary to prevent you know, then we'll get the situation under control and get it up to this point, germany has come through the pandemic fairly well compared to most of its neighbors in europe. but with christmas fast approaching, the government is trying to strike a balance between allowing friends and families to get together and containing the pandemic. some restrictions will be eased over the festive period, but it won't be a big fr

just heard there from the robert koch institute. that the situation perhaps is getting back to what more can you tell us it might be getting better. that's true, but the authorities and in particular their whole but cost institute do not know whether this is a stable development and they also don't know if this initial flattening of the response to the partial lockdown that germany has been in since the beginning of november. so basically what they have said is that we still have to wait for a few more days before initial conclusions can be drawn as to whether the restrictions that were put in place are actually having the desired effect or whether authorities have to tweak them and maybe increase them as well in the next few days. there are big questions as to whether this is being effective in particular, because germany continues to record very high numbers of new cases over 20000, for example, in the last 24 hours. and that is something that is obviously concerning for thor's at the same time. there is a big concern among german
