There were 28 deaths reported. That's high for a Thursday. We are now past the period where the lockdown would be lowering deaths, so a rise now is not unexpected.
7-day average: 23.86 (UP 0.71)

I can't find anything hopeful to say about today's #Covid19Cymru figures. The only thing it says to me is that my suspicions about the data over recent days were probably right.
1251 new cases reported
7-day average 927 (UP 29)
Estimated R now back above 1 at 1.06.

In #Ceredigion there were a further 15 cases reported, and although this is lower than yesterday, the 7-day average still climbs 1.2 to 14.3.

For the 2nd time in 3 days, the total deaths and new deaths reported today do not add up; once again, the total (today 2494) suggests it should be 1 lower than that reported (today 21). So for consistency of totals my graphs show 20 for today.
7-day average DOWN 1.57 to 22.29

Today's #Covid19Cymru figures are all good news.
There were 595 new cases reported today, which if a true reflection of the number of cases, is excellent. To me it feels a little too low, though so have the last 2 days. Maybe something's happening
7-day average: 860 (DOWN 16)

There's even some good news in #Ceredigion, where there were 10 new cases, bringing the 7-day average down just a little (0.3), to 11.3.

“A Cherokee elder was teaching his young grandson about life.
"A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy. "It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil- he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self-doubt and ego.
The other is good- he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.
This same fight is going on inside you—and inside every other person, too."
The boy thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather,
"Which wolf will win?"
The elder simply replied,
"The one you feed.”

Unfortunately, today's #Covid19Cymru case figures seem to confirm my suspicion yesterday that the figures were artificially low. They're back up today. Looking at the green 7-day average line in the chart, it's still unclear which direction we're heading post-lockdown.

It's premature to claim that Wales' lockdown was a success;
