One human death is one too many and 24 death in one day is concerning. But there is another bright spot among today’s numbers. There were 2,057 patients who recovered and the highest number since Mid-October. Countries like Israel, UAE, Qatar and Kuwait where their entire population is fully vaccinated are seeing a surge in new cases and also deaths from the pandemic. I say the old country has been more or less spared from the wrath of the scourge.
