Well you cant relax methods of containment and not expect a higher increase in cases

Cases hinge on just testing (here in the UK anyway). Obviously it’s hypothetical (because it assumes perfect testing) but surely lockdown should be eased when there is a sustained decrease in cases?

As that’s highly unlikely, lockdown should be eased once we have a sustained decrease in day on day deaths. And a steep enough decrease so easing effects won’t reverse that trend?

Well in this post i ofc meant real as in actual cases. Yes number of cases tested possitive seem to be a rather meaningless number for comparisons sake, at least for any other statistics than to compare it with previous testing for that same nation in the same circumstances.

Ok, cheers for the clarity.

Who has a measure of actual cases?
