Health Minister Karl Lauterbach (SPD) assumes that up to 500 people per day could die in Germany with openings like the one in Israel. "I calculated how many people would die with Israel's strategy if we proceeded in a similar way," said the minister in an interview with the ZDF "Heute Journal" on Tuesday evening. "Then you get a quota of maybe 400, 500 people who would die in Germany if we made these openings like this. 

But between 100 and 150 people are currently dying here every day – still too many.” Therefore, the approach in Israel in this regard is not exemplary for Germany and it is also very controversial in Israel.
