Corona website on our homepage is in German and currently is being translated it into English. We succesively add indicators that are influenced by the Pandemic crisis.

Further we focus with our Newsroom press releases mostly on Corona-relevant topics.

And we publish "new" (experimental) indicators that help to fasten the monitoring of economic developments:


e.g. scanner-data analysis about the demand of daily goods https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2020/03/PE20_112_61.html (copy link in the browser)

e.g. newly developed indicator based on truck toll data that is much faster to show the decrease in the industrial sector https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2020/04/PE20_129_421.html (copy link in the browser)


Further we increase the Corporate Communication about the necessity and importance of official data for political decision making. We had a high number of media requests and articles, e.g. Interviews with experts and the DG.
