#1 New cases continue to average about 25,000 per day, and have for a good while. Deaths have dropped from an average of over 1500 per day a month ago to under 1000 more recently.

#4 Case count is meaningless, it can rise from something as simple as n increased number of tests Whats the hospitalization count and rate? Thats the main danger, are we overflowing the hospitals? If not then guess what? Flattening the curve worked. Thats what the qhole rationale is behind masks, distancing, etc. Reduce the rate of cases to something the healthcare system can deal with.

Panic and fear is what the press wants.

#5 No surprise. You quarantine healthy (young) people and then they get back out, an increase is understandable.

#7 Don't believe any of these statistics. Whoever reports these cases are outright liars as are the media that report them. Especially Al Arabiya.
