Melbourne tested 30,000 in a day Tokyo less that so muuuum not a reality. 1 person gets the virus in Aust/ NZ it's big news 445 in Tokyo not so much. Nice handeling.

Waiting for the number of deaths, hopefully goes down again.
Number of cases staying under 500 is probably a best case scenario

easier solution, ignore people you disagree with. Regardless of what you repeatedly say, all the data here, and around the world, are pointing toward a downward trend in infections.

Serious question: when can we go drinking again and not have last call at 7:30?

Currently the problem is to have quick vaccinating and also sufficient genome sequencing , and if those much more severe variants are found, to as quickly as possible isolate them before further spreading. Otherwise those decreasing numbers of new infections that everyone is celebrating are completely worthless, because in the background a still hidden but very fast developing exponential growth of those variants is building up and will overrun everything within several weeks.

Number of daily cases is tiring. It means nothing without underlying data.

And in france 20 00 a day is a good new.
Of course dynamic is the most important thing.
1 person in tokyo was big news last year.

And the heard gets larger and larger each day and this virus will burn itself out before the bureaucrats get 50,000 vaccinated.
