714 new cases for Australia and 15 deaths sees the CMR rise to 1.270% and active cases rise to 8,398. NSW recorded 12; WA & Queensland recorded 1 each with the balance in Victoria. Thanks to the timing differences, it wasn't the highest daily new cases number although it was the largest single day death toll and Victoria also passed the previous daily high for new cases.

2 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.402% and active cases rise to 24.

The UK recorded 891 new cases and 65 deaths yesterday so the CMR drops to 15.093%.

Just over 54k new cases in the USA yesterday and 1,362 deaths sees CMR down to 3.259% and active cases at 46.3% with the raw numbers rising again. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.
