Yeah, if we look at hospitalisations, we're at around 17% of the peak earlier in the year (I picked hopsitalisations as deaths is not a good indicator as we're getting better at treatment). Extrapolating to testing we would expect over 100,000 cases per day if the testing rate was the same back in March/April time. Yikes!
