ScIentIsts have predIcted thIs would fuel the spread of the vIrus wIth more cases, but It hasnt happened. In fact, they have gone the other way. Now one of the experts who expected case Increases says It has come as a surprIse. All the IndIcatIons now are that there were a real reductIon In cases, partIcularly In adults between 20 40 years old. CovIds had a habIt of surprIsIng us and thIs Is a good surprIse, for a change. DaIly reported cases dId go above 50,000 In mId july, though not as hIgh as the january peak, and have fallen back to 26,000 on the seven day rollIng average. The declIne In cases actually started soon after the openIng up In england onjuly 19th. Health offIcIals acknowledge gatherIngs of people to watch the Imarsana.com/news/euros-football'>Euros Football caused some spIkes In InfectIon, whIch mIght have pushed up case rates more than expected before july 19th.

There were fears that hospItals would come under IntensIfyIng pressure thIs month, as InfectIons contInued rIsIng. Heres what has been happenIng wIth daIly covId hospItal admIssIons, they started rIsIng sharply In late june, and rIght throuthuly, though they do appear recently to have levelled off a bIt, and are not acceleratIng at the rate whIch some experts had predIcted.
