A rolling CI is a ratio examining case totals, over a rolling 2x incubation period. It indicates whether the spread is slowing down. I think it is plateauing.

Good luck with that. There are people making them. If you are aware of the @WHO guidelines you will know which one’s are worth getting.

You can make your own Face Mask. See pages 7-12 for recent @WHO info on masks for the General Public. tinyurl.com/y8llm7e3 Keep mouth closed when worn. Replace when wet (wet cotton negates benefits).
