"I am very worried about the situation. We are facing difficult weeks. We need a national effort to stop the autumn and winter wave of the pandemic."

This is the appeal launched to the citizens of Germany by Chancellor Angela Merkel, who in her weekly podcasts stressed that the number of infected people in the country is currently "the highest ever in the pandemic" and that "the number of patients in intensive care it increases "while" unfortunately we have to register many deaths every day ".

The Chancellor stressed that the situation is not serious everywhere, but that it is certainly worse where the proportion of vaccinated is lower.

In recent days, the new daily infections in Germany have even reached 50 thousand, while in the latest bulletin the daily deaths were 229.
