During a very short time period in spring 2020, German TV user numbers grew from almost 5.6 million to nearly 6.1 million. The statistic specifically evaluates user numbers during the coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic in Germany. Rising media consumption levels are to be expected, as the population is being called upon by the government to stay at home as much as possible, many companies have relocated their work to home offices and a nationwide contact ban has been implemented.
