Sunday today, the proverbial day of rest, but due to
the restrictions that have been put into place there will be no traditional
meet ups of families for a Sunday pint, lunch, taking grandchildren to see
grandparents, attending the Sunday morning football in the local park or at
stadiums throughout Wales and the UK, or any other activities that normally
take place on a Sunday. I think I speak for many when I pray that the
Coronavirus also takes a day of rest.
Until everyone, in every town and
county of Wales and the rest of the UK starts to accept that this pandemic takes no prisoners then I
am afraid that it will never disappear and that long awaited light at the end
of that very long tunnel will never get any closer and many will continue to
suffer well into 2021.
Another 44 people have died in Wales with coronavirus; the latest Public Health Wales figures have shown. It takes the total number of deaths with Covid reported since the start of the pandemic in Wales to 4,530. There were also 796 new Covid infections reported, taking the total number of cases to 187,711.
Of the newly-reported deaths, 12 were in the Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board area, 11 in Cardiff and Vale and 8 in Aneurin Bevan. Cwm Taf Morgannwg reported 7, Hywel Dda 4 and 2 by Swansea Bay.
Wrexham has the highest rolling seven-day case rate
in Wales with 564.1 people per 100,000 testing positive. That is
followed by Flintshire with 425.4
and Newport with 315.5. Monmouthshire
has the lowest case rate at 141.7
for 100,000, followed by Anglesey (142.8) and Ceredigion (155.4).
Today’s total number of deaths in the UK is 610,
bringing the country's official death toll to 97,939.
More than two million tests have
been carried out in Wales, with 1,475,193
people tested and a total of 13,224
tests were carried out on Saturday.
Challenges like the pandemic are what make life difficult but
interesting... overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.
Remember... To save lives...
