Comments by German health minister, Jens Spahn
- If not, there certainly will be a vaccine next year
- Average age of infected persons in Germany is falling
- There are a lot of new infections among younger people
- The rise in cases is worrying but health system can cope
Spahn is mainly trying to defuse tensions with the vaccine remarks surely. Germany reported another 1,445 new cases today as the infection spread is picking up across the country, with active cases now surpassing 10,000 - the most since 21 May.
For now, local authorities are still playing down the situation but let's see how things go and if it will have further economic consequences in the coming months.
