Is that 39 deaths for the whole country? Good job, Australia.
I don’t have a state level breakdown, but I track the Johns Hopkins numbers daily for the US. As of 5:45 a.m. in the USA on 2/18 there were 3,223 deaths added to the totals from the day before and a total of 96,567 new cases.
On the “bright” side, the new cases figure is definitely an improvement, as it’s the first Friday of 2022 with new cases under 100K. The worst Friday so far in that regard was Jan 14, with 873,958 new cases.
god, ugh
