AZjohn Posted February 5, 2023 #26 Share Posted February 5, 2023 So just out of curiosity, has Covid cases been going down in general in Australia and New Zealand (not specifically on cruise ships)? Not interested in trying to get out of any required tests before/during our cruise in a few weeks, just wondering if cases are going down like here in the US? And note, when I say cases going down here I’m actually talking about sewer monitoring because actual cases are not being counted anymore because of all the home tests. Thanks, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, John Here is a good summary of COVID statistics for the state of New South Wales. I think other states would be similar. Scroll down to page twelve for sewerage testing info. https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/Infectious/covid-19/Documents/weekly-covid-overview-20230128.pdf Edited February 5, 2023 by lyndarra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZjohn Posted February 5, 2023 #29 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Thanks for both replies @lyndarra and @possum52, Like us in the US, your cases are heading down also after the Christmas Holidays. But the death numbers always remind me this is still a deadly virus to a few sadly. Cheers and see you all in a few weeks, John 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
