NDTV
Germany's seven-day coronavirus incidence rate crossed 145 infections per 100,000 people on Saturday, after hitting 100 a week before for the first time since May.
Chancellor Angela Merkel sounded the alarm on Saturday over the return of a "certain recklessness" as Covid-19 infection and death rates climb in Germany.
Increasing numbers of hospitals admissions with coronavirus "worry me a lot", Merkel told Sunday's edition of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper.
"It should worry all of us," she added, noting "again a certain recklessness" in Germany.
She defended the right not to be vaccinated but admitted at being "very saddened" that as many as three million Germans aged over 60 have still not had the jab.
