The number of confirmed coronavirus cases rose to 190,862 with a total of 8,895 deaths, as reported by the German disease and epidemic control center, Robert Koch Institute (RKI), on Tuesday.

Cases increased by 503 in Germany on Tuesday versus Monday’s +537. The death count rose by 10, the tally showed.

The institute estimates the virus reproduction rate (R-value), the 4-day moving average, to be at 2.76 as of Monday. The 7-day average rate ticked lower to 1.83, still way above the key 1.00 threshold.

The fresh outbreak in North Rhine-Westphalia has raised significant concerns over community transmission, as the German economy continues to re-open up.
