Chart "by age and gender" at the end of the page
editCould anyone check the chart "by age and gender" The numbers are 80+ 7,450 13,205 20,655 according to the table on the left and the grapic on the right puts the same segment at 90k+ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.15.29.253 (talk) 08:31, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
7-day prevalence video since outbreak
editCurrently, the "7-day prevalence since outbreak" video is broken. It shows a rolling date counter but almost nothing on the map up to about 1:10 (video time) and, at which point also the date freezes at "29-th of July 2021", and then, from 1:26 (video time) onwards, supposedly shows prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 from late April 2021 onwards. 88.130.216.35 (talk) 13:53, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
- Sometimes, the RKI dataset it's based on is incomplete. Since August, extra checks have been added to prevent such uploads. -- Xplus1 (talk) 01:10, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
Hasn't been updated for a month (since 2022-02-08), since the 7-day cases/100,000 tally first broke through 1500. Demoralization? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.52.207.45 (talk) 11:34, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
Fake news
editFrom this article "risk of death of "over-65-year-olds [is] at 50%" - That was pure fake news to create anxiety. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.185.37.144 (talk) 06:57, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
Badly in need of updating (September 2022)
editThe main text of the article doesn't seem to have been updated since November 2021; the maps not since early 2022. I can't do it as it is closed to editing. 98.115.160.165 (talk) 10:21, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
Inconsistency between graph and table
editThe graph of daily deaths shows deaths dwindling well below 100/day in December 2022, while the tablulated data right next to the graph show deaths averaging above 100/day in December 2022. Which one is in error? 98.115.160.165 (talk) 03:26, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
- Problem solved by removing the more reliable tabulated data and retaining the less reliable graphed data? : / 98.115.160.165 (talk) 12:40, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
The cited reference data -- Template:COVID-19 pandemic data/Germany medical cases chart -- show the death rate rising to an average of 175 deaths per day for the first week of January 2023, while the graph shows deaths substantailly under 100 deaths per day. Is the graphed data coming from a source other than the cited source, or is it being misplotted? This discrepancy needs to be addressed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.115.160.165 (talk) 20:55, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
Source for "pandemic of the unvaccinated" declarations
editOn 4 November, as almost 34,000 reported infections set a new record since the beginning of the pandemic, Health Minister Jens Spahn spoke of a "massive pandemic of the unvaccinated".
While, as far as I know, Spahn did indeed use these words, which were widely reported back then, the BBC article has been edited and no longer has this passage. The original article contained this wording (archive), it was removed within the following 24 hours (archive). I marked this as failed verification, since it needs a new source.
