Germany recorded over 12,000 people infected with Covid - 19 yesterday.
After the main news yesterday evening German Chancellor Angela Merkel made an unprecedented address to the nation.
She covered most of the points that the Taoiseach did in his St Patrick's Day address.
The Chancellor said that it was the greatest crisis in Germany since World War II. She stressed the importance of slowing the rate of spread of the disease.
Mrs Merkel observed that Germany most likely has one of the best health systems in the world, nevertheless, it would not have the capacity to deal with the large numbers of infected people that they are expecting.
At the weekend there was a 60 kilometre traffic jam on the German Polish border.
Yesterday in the small town of Mitterteich in Bavaria people were ordered to stay in their homes after a large number of the population was tested positive.
Volkswagen, BMW are to cease production.
