Nothing new in the Vogtlandkreis: Corona numbers remain stable!

On July 15, 2025, the situation around Covid-19 in Germany, especially in the Vogtlandkreis, remains stable. According to the current numbers of News.de No new infections were reported in the Vogtlandkreis, which is a clear decline compared to the previous day. Overall, there has only been a new case in the district in the last seven days, which leads to a 7-day incidence of 0.4 per 100,000 inhabitants. The total number of people tested positively amounts to 112,408.

in Saxony, the situation looks a little different. There have been five additional new infections here in the last 24 hours, which leads to a total number of 2,017,112 COVID cases in the state. The 7-day incidence is still at a low level at 0.6 per 100,000 inhabitants.

The number of intensive care beds in the Vogtlandkreis is 54, 38 of which are occupied. This means that 16 beds are free. It is particularly gratifying that no covid patient is currently being treated in the intensive care unit.

The new Corona variant Nimbus

The focus is also on the newly discovered Corona variant Nimbus, which has been known since the end of January 2025. According to the Tagesschau is a subtype of the Omikron variant. In Germany it first performed at the end of March 2025 and was responsible for about 20% of the infections examined in May. Despite its distribution, there are no evidence of serious disease courses so far, and the WHO has classified it as a "variant under observation".

From a European point of view, the spread of Nimbus cannot be compared to the massive spread of the delta variant, which was causing chaos in 2021. According to initial laboratory tests, Nimbus could be more contagious, but no more serious hospitalization rates. The current vaccines still seem to remain effective, and the STIKO recommends an annual refreshing vaccination for over 60 years of age and risk groups.
