Data valid as at 00:00 GMT December 28th, 2020.

Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting.

25 new cases for Australia and 0 deaths so the CMR is 3.204%. NSW recorded 14 cases, WA & Queensland 5 each, Victoria 2 and SA recorded 1.

16 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.166% and active cases 50.

The UK had a new record 41,385 cases yesterday and 357 deaths.

Just over 153k new cases in the USA yesterday and 1,293 deaths sees CMR drop to 1.741% and active cases at 39.6% with the raw numbers rising and now over 7.7M. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.

Other notable points - bearing in mind that some countries still haven't reported over the Christmas period:
The USA completes 248M, Spain 27M, Poland 7M and Sweden / South Korea 4M tests.

Only Cyprus (751); and
United Kingdom (41,385)

...
recorded new daily highs; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day.

4 years for "picking quarrels and provoking trouble."

China has punished 8 whistle blowers so far.
Geeze.....

Makes you wonder. How many people are on a certain government list for badmouthing the regime?

If they ever travel to China they may get a tap on the shoulder just after clearing customs or one just before they depart...

The Chinese biological laboratory in Wuhan is owned by Glaxo.
Who, by chance, owns Pfizer (the one who produces the vaccine.)
Which, by chance, is managed by Black Rock finances.
Who, by chance, manages the finances of the Open Foundation Company (SOROS FOUNDATION).
Coincidentally, he owns the German company Winterthur.
Who, by chance, built the Chinese laboratory in Wuhan.
Accidentally bought by the German Allianz.
Which, incidentally, has Vanguard as a shareholder.
Which is a shareholder of Black Rock.
Which controls the central banks and manages about ONE THIRD of the global investment capital.
Which, incidentally, is a major shareholder of MICROSOFT the property of BILL GATES, who happens to be a shareholder of PFIZER (which sells the miracle vaccine).

Saw this on RT news (Russian owned), but verified on the IPS site (US operated)

https://ips-dc.org/billionaire-wealt...munity-health/

"As of November 17, the combined wealth of 647 U.S. billionaires increased by almost $960 billion since mid-March, the beginning of the pandemic lockdown — an increase of nearly $1 trillion in less than a year."

Data valid as at 00:00 GMT December 29th, 2020.

Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting.

13 new cases for Australia and 1 death so the CMR is 3.206%. NSW recorded 9 cases, Queensland 2, WA and the NT recorded 1 each.

7 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.162% and active cases 49.

The UK had a new record 53,135 cases yesterday and 458 deaths.

Just over 186k new cases in the USA yesterday and 1,965 deaths sees CMR drop to 1.735% and active cases at 39.1% with the raw numbers rising and now over 7.7M. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.

Other notable points:
Global cases pass 82M, the last 1M in 2 days;
Europe passes 23M cases;
South America passes 13M cases;
North America passes 0.5M deaths;
The USA completes 250M, India 169M, UK 54M, Turkey 24M and Croatia 1M tests.

Cyprus (907) - 21% above the high yesterday;
Ireland (1,545) - the previous high back on 10th April;
Sweden (11,380) on 23/12; and
United Kingdom (53,135) - 28.4% above the high yesterday

...
recorded new daily highs; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day.

Please note that the source data has not yet recorded any major revision of the Russian mortalities so they remain at the 'official' 55k figure.

In other news, Belgium becomes the first of the major countries to pass 200 deaths per 100k of adult population although Italy (197.9) isn't far behind.

That new S strain is a bit of a worry, here is the % ratio of the new v's the old in the UK.
I read new cases in the US have been detected in someone that didn't travel, i.e community spread.

Down further on the page:

THE ANALYSIS
While the post suggests a web of links between pharmaceutical giants involved in COVID-19 vaccine development, investment firms and billionaires Bill Gates and George Soros, the purported conspiracy falls down at the first hurdle.

The post’s claim the “Chinese biological laboratory in Wuhan” is owned by GlaxoSmithKlein (GSK) is not true, nor does the British pharmaceutical firm own US rival Pfizer.

I would have thought that there would have been some learned lessons from the Vic management, why TF does NSW has a differing approach.
Is it me or should the control methods be a federal standard by now !?

All the ****ups of late suggests NSW is in for a hard time. Extended families ignoring advice, backpacker ****s that don't deserve to be here, mass gatherings etc.

Two women in their 40's, and one woman in her 70's. Highly unlikely they will be the only VIC cases linked to the NSW cluster.




Wollongong is 100+ Km/s from the Northern Beaches. FFS this is NOT a localised Northern Beaches cluster. It is all over NSW!

Should be thank you to the clowns who defied common sense who travelled from NSW hot spots to Vic when told not to.
Why don't you blame Daniel Andrews for being too slow to close the border when the NSW outbreak first taken place?

To be honest not surprised as it was matter of time we were going to get it again.

A shopping centre, and a church on Boxing Day among the list just released by VIC Health.



List is being updated by the hour.


Unconfirmed reports saying this is another case of some person(s) who lied on their border pass to enter VIC from NSW. If true, there needs to be severe penalties applied. Enough of the slaps on wrists.
