Tell that to those who got infected and their families.

That is 45% fewer daily cases than the same day a week ago, 50% lower than two weeks ago, 62% lower than three weeks ago and 72% lower than one month ago.
Stable and steady downwards progression in the last couple months, looks like this will soon drop to below where cases were a year ago before sars-cov2 had even barely started to spread yet! I suppose you could call week on week development over a period of months with a repeated weekly pattern - a 'trend'.

Noticing that this silly reporting is continuing and caring about it are 2 very different things.

It is apparent it is better to listen to actual experts on this matter.
I assume I am correct in assuming none such exist here.
