BREAKING: Coronavirus Outbreak

US yesterday 19,532. AL, SC new highs. SC 5 days in a row.

Canada yesterday 361, lowest since end of March.

Middle East focus today:

Kuwait, UAE, Qatar, doing better, consistent decline after peak.

Lebanon fluctuating below 20.

Jordan overall at a low level, like Lebanon, but having a few cluster outbreaks.

Yemen also flutuating at a low level. Data reporting may be an issue.

Bahrain, Oman, Iraq cases increasing, really need to take more action.

Iran on terrible trends up and down and on and on. Need to get to zero.

Overall, Middle East 4 week progress plot attached shows more consistency in strong actions is needed to #get2zero.
