PROVINCIAL UPDATE 20 JULY

• Changes from yesterday highlighted
• Cumulative cases graph
• Comorbid diseases table

Cases from WC have been reallocated so numbers have gone down there, as a result I can't work out what the actual increase for cases and recoveries were today.
Cumulatve cases graph

FS curve the one that stands out on this graph by the way it's been bending up.
Here's a quick comparison of number of days to go from 1000 to 10 000 cases to give you an idea of the growth in FS:

FS - 24
WC - 28
EC - 37
NW - 37
GP - 59
KZN - 62
Here's the weekly look at the co-morbid diseases table:

Fatality rates per category have not changed too much over the last few weeks, I just put this out weekly because I know there's new people who may not have seen it as yet.

Comorbidities reported among deaths

Still very limited info from deaths of those below 20 but cancer, TB and heart conditions have been factors in some deaths so generally serious conditions.

Co-morbid info from this report:
nicd.ac.za/wp-content/upl…
All covid data has its limitations for various reasons and the NICD explains some of those limitations here.

The one thing I highlighted was the fact that up to this point classification of obesity has been the subjective opinion of the attending health care worker.
