Yes the new cases number for the day is the lowest for quite a while. The same here in the US. Usually numbers on weekends are lower than weekdays but not this low. There are good news in regards to the pandemic lately but it is not yet time to claim the virus is dead and gone. As I expected and mentioned before the virus has now reinvented itself into the most dangerous and deadly variant. This new variant is found to be the easiest to spread through air. It was discovered in Vietnam which has been the poster child of success in controlling the virus. This variant is a combination of the ones found in India and The UK. The good news is it can be prevented by wearing face masks and getting vaccinated. Stay safe y’all!!!!
