That puts us at 75,418 cases this week. Another healthy drop from last week.
I’ve been posting these stats since near the beginning of the pandemic but now that the divide in cases and hospitalisations has widen thanks to both vaccines and a milder variant, it’s as good a time as ever to call it a day in regularly posting these.
If things change down the line I may start posting again and maybe once in a while to see where things are but I’m pretty optimistic we’re on the other side of this, finally.
