USA case numbers really coming down now!
 
A much improved picture being reported in the US now, fingers crossed this continues and it goes on the green list in the next review, or by the end of June review at the latest.

U.S. COVID update: Lowest number of new cases since June 2020

- New cases: 17,487

- Positivity rate: 1.9% (-0.6)
- In hospital: 30,102 (-705)
- In ICU: 8,142 (-94)
- New deaths: 343

I know there is talk of a lot of vaccine hesitancy but hopefully nothing details the progress so far.

That is really positive (I always feel weird using that word at the moment!)

With those stats, the UK Government will be a hard push to keep them on amber for much longer!

Wonder if their media has been a bit more measured in responding to it!
