Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting except for the Victorian 14 day moving averages.

10 new cases for Australia and no deaths so the CMR drops to 3.278% while active cases rise to 1,307. NSW recorded 7, SA recorded 2 andc the NT recorded 1 case. Victoria reported no new cases for the last 24 hours for the 10th consecutive day.

4 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.259% and active cases rise to 51.

The UK had a higher 21,350 new cases yesterday. We know they are now not counting their mortalities by the WHO guidelines so we are going to ignore the CMR but even using their method they recorded 194 deaths.

Just under 111k new cases in the USA yesterday and 550 deaths sees CMR drop to 2.368% and active cases rise to 34.7% with the raw numbers rising and now over 3.4M. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.
