Germany's incoming transport minister is advising people against travelling over Christmas as the country tries to stem a wave of coronavirus infections.

At least 68.9 per cent of Germans are fully vaccinated against COVID-19, short of the government's aim of a minimum 75 per cent vaccination rate. The shortfall has been blamed as a key factor in a surge of new virus cases in recent weeks.

Another 94 deaths in 24 hours brought Germany's confirmed total in the pandemic to 103,040.
