Germany coronavirus threat raised to 'high' alert

The Robert Koch Institute (RKI), Germany's disease control and prevention agency, adjusted on Tuesday its coronavirus threat risk for the country from "moderate" to "high."

Robert Koch Chief Lothar Wieler said the risk adjustment is based on the continual increase in new infections, along with warning signs from hospitals and public health facilities.

The RKI also warned that an increasing number of COVID-19 infections cannot be traced back to known cases.

Germany currently has over 7,500 confirmed COVID-19 cases, including 20 deaths.
