Well well this statement was definitely wrong. Testing decreased by almost 100k. I guess part of the reason was a public holiday last week but even without it the numbers shouldn't have been this low.

In truth, infections in Germany went down about 10% WoW.

Last week was better than I thought. Numbers looked like they would stay flat but didn't.

3,150 positive cases (-12.5%) with 392k tests (+13.3%).

On average there were 450 positive cases a day (or 525 if you discard Sunday).

632 in ICU (-17.2%).

There was another public holiday earlier this week (and another partial public holiday next week... May and June are crazy when it comes to public holidays), so testing capacity will probably drop to ~300k again.

2,349 positive cases (-25.4%) with 329k tests (-16.1%).

On average there were 336 positive cases a day (or 392 if you discard Sunday).

492 in ICU (-22.2%)

Definitely still in decline but not as drastic as it seems (because of the public holiday and therefore reduced testing which I mentioned in my other post).
