Some good news 

 

Quote

No. of new virus cases falls below 100 for first time in more than a month

South Korea's new coronavirus cases dipped below 100 for the first time in more than a month on Sunday on the back of the country's strict social distancing scheme, but untraceable infections still pose a challenge to the country's virus fight.

The country added 82 more COVID-19 cases, including 72 local infections, taking the total caseload to 22,975, according to the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA). 

It marked the first time for the daily tally to fall below 100 since Aug. 14.

Hopefully stays this way although the article goes on to say “The two-digit figure, however, apparently came as fewer tests are normally carried out over the weekend.” Anyway seems like South Korea is once again getting on top of this and it seems to be paying off.

If these 30% drops continue, will reach $16mn, which is bad but we were fearing under $10mn in first weekend.

Hopefully it hit 2mn admits atleast. I would have loved double of that however.
