jda Jun 2020 5:13pm, 5 Jun 2020 7,537 posts	0 jda What fall in infections? It's been around the same level for a while now AIUI.
EvilPixie Jun 2020 5:14pm, 5 Jun 2020 17,640 posts	0 EvilPixie Well they say 1600 today despite more testing
Dave W Jun 2020 5:16pm, 5 Jun 2020 1,631 posts	0 Dave W So how many actual people were tested? Are they telling us that now, or is it still just "number of tests?
EvilPixie Jun 2020 5:17pm, 5 Jun 2020 17,641 posts	0 EvilPixie The later I believe
jda Jun 2020 5:18pm, 5 Jun 2020 7,538 posts	0 jda It's been between 1500 and 2100 for the past 10 or 12 days. There was an ONS report suggesting fewer cases but that was quite old relative to the daily numbers. Ie it had dropped throughout May or something. But it seems to have stopped dropping.
Little Miss Happy Jun 2020 5:26pm, 5 Jun 2020 2,665 posts	0 Little Miss Happy On the news just now they said that infections (outside of hospitals and care homes) were down from 8000 to 5000.
jda Jun 2020 5:30pm, 5 Jun 2020 7,539 posts	0 jda I think that's based on the ONS survey which is roughly speaking looking back at May. So that drop is relative to the start of May, and it seems pretty flat for a week or so now.
