Since August 10, the number of hospitalized patients from this source is also being stored.

The number of deaths are not quite matching up between those two datasources, it seems that the RKI is reporting around 30 more people who died through COVID-19.

The numbers reported to the RKI are also delayed by one day, the time of recording has been moved back one day to align with the dates from hamburg.de.
