The last 5 days are in grey to show that they are incomplete.
I'm guessing that of the 529 deaths reported today, 134 were for the same day. The rest were for the previous days which are being topped up. Sadly, its not going to be only 134 deaths today when you look at the data in a couple of days time.
I dont think many people realise that daily deaths have only breached 700 a handful of times in this 2nd wave. Lots of people assume the daily deaths figure is for a single day when in fact it normally covers a few days.
Look at date of death figures to see what I mean. 134 today.
