Data valid as at 23:47 GMT September 28th, 2020.

Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting except for the Victorian 14 day moving averages.

4 new cases for Australia and 3 deaths so the CMR rises to 3.235% while active cases drop to 1,493. All recorded cases were in Victoria.

The Victorian State 14 day moving average is now 21.79 with metro at 18.2 (27 unknown) and regional at 0.6 and no unknown cases. Victoria reported 10 new cases for the last 24 hours.

No new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.364% and active cases drop to 55.

The UK had 4,044 new cases yesterday, an improvement on last week. We know they are now not counting their mortalities by the WHO guidelines so we are going to ignore those figures.

Just over 36.5k new cases in the USA yesterday and 276 deaths sees CMR drop to 2.860% and active cases drop to 34.9% with the raw numbers rising slightly. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.

Other notable points:
The USA completes 105M, UK 24M and Spain 12M test;

None of the countries we watch recorded a new daily high; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day.
