Data valid as at 23:59 GMT October 9th, 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.

23 new cases for Australia and no deaths so the CMR drops to 3.294% while active cases rise to 1,360. NSW recorded 10, WA recorded 2 and SA recorded 1 case with the balance in Victoria.

The Victorian State 14 day moving average is now 10.71 with metro slightly up at 9.5 (10 unknown) and regional at 0.4 and no unknown cases. Victoria reported 14 new cases for the last 24 hours.

2 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.340% and active cases rise to 40.

The UK had 13,864 new cases yesterday. We know they are now not counting their mortalities by the WHO guidelines so we are going to ignore the CMR but even using their method they recorded 87 deaths.

Just under 57k new cases in the USA yesterday and 957 deaths sees CMR drop to 2.779% and active cases remain at 33.1% with the raw numbers rising. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences.
