It is clear to see on this graph that the 7 day rolling average has been going up since July. It can also been seen that the increase is nothing like what happened in March and April. My concern is though, that schools, collages, Universities and work places are not yet in full swing.
Death rates though are thankfully very low due probably to the reasons we have already discussed on this thread. I was listening to a science programme on Radio 4 yesterday, and they were saying evidence from around the world seems to show schools play a fairly big role in the spread of the virus. Children themselves aren't at risk, but they (in particular secondary age children) appear to spread it as much if not more so than adults.
It will be interesting to keep an eye on this seven day M.A. graph over the next couple of months to see if it starts to steepen. Here is the graph.
Daily case numbers and seven-day rolling average now higher than on 23 March when national lockdowns announced.
