The last time the daily recovery registered more than one thousand was on January 15, 2021. Let’s hope we will such recoveries will happen again and again in days and weeks to come. The daily and 7-day average of positive count rates out of the daily total tests is still high at 12.8%. Now they have new variants to deal with. It has been and will continue to be an uphill battle until either widespread herd immunity is attained or majority of the population is vaccinated.
