The Corona Crucible – Tues 22nd September

World 31.4 million    Argentina 640K+      Chile 440K+             

Three more countries, Morocco, Belgium and Kuwait have now recorded over 100,000 cases of COVID-19. That’s 37 countries to reach that number of infections. The situation in Europe is getting worse with only minimal restrictions in force in many countries. They could learn a thing or two from how we have managed this second wave here in Melbourne, and in Australia more generally, with border closures and other measures to limit the movement of people. Australia is now 75th on this list with just under 27,000 overall infections. Our second wave has gone down faster than it went up. We’ve recorded 28 new cases overnight. Our 14 day average is now 32.8.
