Abstract (Translated): 
Recent data from EU-SILC and Destatis seemed to indicate a dramatic increase in German inequality and poverty in the pandemic year 2020. But Destatis had changed its data collection method. Based on several studies, it is likely that the actual rise has been much weaker while the previous data collection by Destatis might have underestimated the true disparities within German society in the past.
