PROVINCIAL UPDATE 22 OCTOBER

• Changes from yesterday highlighted
• 7 day average of active cases per million
• A closer look at the WC figures after the DOH saying yesterday there's been a 42% increase in cases over the last 7 days

20 deaths occurring the past 48 hours.

7 day average of active cases per million

• FS & GP going down from last week after large number of recoveries reported - FS still very high though
• WC, NW & NC all going up from last week
• Not much change for the rest but I expect KZN to start going up over the next week

Yesterday there was a post from Dr Mkhize saying there has been a 42% increase in infections over the last 7 days in WC. I can only assume they are talking about a week on week increase and since they said last 7 days that would be up to and including 21st Oct. So I decided to...

...look at the numbers for the last two weeks and cases went down by 58 or a decrease of 3.6%.
I'm really not sure where that 42% increase is coming from.
Also WC Gov reported a 13.65% increase, given that WC uses a different 24 timeline, but its still way off what I'm getting
