A small Australian December (!) #flu thread.
In the ~25 days since my last update (08NOV), detections have risen by 32,330. That's a daily rate of 1,293 (up from 1,067 in the previous update).

The Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus:

“We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense.

“It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and Long COVID, and it still kills.

“The world might want to forget about COVID-19, but we cannot afford to.”

COVID cases in NSW have surged, hitting their highest weekly count since June 2024, now topping 4,000 weekly notifications. This marks a clear winter wave.

With hardly anyone reporting and public RAT reporting ending on 1 Oct 2023, actual infections are definitely higher than the official figures.
