SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the trending data of COVID-19 cases and deaths globally, highlighting the utility of specific resources such as the USAFacts COVID-19 map and Worldometers for tracking statistics. Users noted that while cases are increasing, deaths are decreasing in some regions, indicating a potential positive trend. However, the UK reported a concerning rise in daily deaths, surpassing 300 for the first time since March, suggesting regional variations in pandemic management.

Globally but not in the UK, for the first time since March we have hit over 300 deaths in a 24 hour period. We had been steady at about 120 deaths per day for weeks.
A funny time to be getting the data in though, New Year, holidays, weekend.
See in a few days when everyone is back.
