Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting.

30 new cases for Australia and no deaths so the CMR is 3.069%.

1 new case and 0 deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.000% and active cases 33.

The UK had a lower 2,061 cases yesterday and 32 deaths.

Just over 67k new cases in the USA yesterday and 853 deaths sees CMR at 1.787%. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.

Other notable points: (weekend reporting)
Global cases pass 147M, the last 1M in 1 day;
Global deaths pass 3.1M, the last 50k in 4 days;
Global cases set a new daily high of 897,839 (23/4);
Asia sets a new daily high of 485,859 cases (23/4);
India sets a new global record for daily cases (349,313);

Costa Rica (1,830);
Thailand (2,839); andIndia (349,313)

... recorded new daily highs; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day.

No countries move above the 90th percentile for their 10 day average while none drop below.

Yes... Seems to have returned with a vengeance here!
The last week has seen 1800+ new cases per day Twice... (both are records)
As from Monday, driving restrictions are back!
(Odds & evens weekends + 9pm-5am curfew!)
Govcos reasoning behind this is to reduce motor accidents that inundated hospital system simply can’t cope with.. (IC beds are presently at 99% due to Covid)
