I think the 'intensive care' category appears, if there is one at this table

Though per normal disclaimer

to protect privacy, only limited data will be provided about hospitalisations.

RNZ have this visualisations page which is kept up to date fairly well.

2,500 cases today... and an organised running event in Hobsonville Pt with the walkway totally dominated, and people not masked up walking around the market/cafe area.

It's like a totally different country to six months ago.

They aren't publishing daily testing numbers in Auckland, But from this page , roughly 50% of the national testing was happening in the 3 Ak DHBs in the week before last....

https://www.health.govt.nz/covid-19-novel-coronavirus/covid-19-data-and-statistics/testing-covid-19.

If that is still holding, then from today's 28K tests , roughly 14K Auckland tests resulted in 1800 cases.. thats 13% positivity.... The rest of the country is about 5%....

Queues up the wazoo at the CHC airport testing station again today.

Portaloos brought in it's that long..

It's come out that suddenly we have at least 5 schools with positive students. So there will be some panic.

Paul1977: Where can I find the number of cases in ICU? I can only find numbers in hospital, but doesn’t break it down further.

The business I work for (construction) has had numerous companies offer us RATs for sale. I’ve never actually bothered to look at pricing or origin yet.

May have a look tomorrow but from all the emails I get there are plenty available for sale to businesses.

Panasonic 65GZ1000, Onkyo RZ730, Atmos 5.1.2, AppleTV 4K, Nest Mini's, PS5, PS3, MacbookPro, iPad Pro, Apple watch SE2, iPhone 15+

Still very very early in the outbreak. Those who tested positive today may take weeks before failing to recover and getting worse, before needing hospital or ICU care. Some people seem to spend months in ICU. So we don't want to be lulled into a false sense of security as we only need to look at Oz to see how numbers will go.

More like those who tested positive today, are already likely a week delayed in getting results... (Did you not catch the news last 24hrs)

Process/advising of ~26k/day.
Rolling average of 29k tests a day

Treading water finished a few weeks back. Swallowing water now. So rapids are now going out to the testing stations to take some of the load away due to the 5-6 day result average.
