There were 29 deaths reported today, bringing the total to 2523. That takes the 7-day average up just a little - 0.29 - to 22.57.

The figures continue to climb in #Ceredigion, where there were 17 new cases, taking the 7-day average UP 1.9 to 17.9. Just one glance at the green average line on the chart shows the trend very clearly, and this is worrying.

And for those watching the Local Authority figures, here are your data. Rhondda Cynon Taf is back over 200 - the first (as far as I can remember) to get to those dizzy heights again since lockdown. And no fewer than four other local authorities see triple figures today, including - for the first time as far as I can remember - Torfaen, on exactly 100.

I'd like to pretend that I boycotted Black Friday as some form of protest against the rampant capitalism and consumerism, but if I'm being honest... all the deals this year were shit.

This is my view right now. On the hill towards the right there's a film crew currently filming for a countryside television programme on S4C. It's the end of November, and I'm sweating like mad despite not bringing a coat. Is this global warming or what?! I suspect it might be a bit of a Föhn effect tbh.

Amazon hires 427,000 people in 10 months. Not including contacters or temporary workers.

More importantly, they're also working with preschools to establish the foundation of tech education so that "as the hiring unfolds over the next 10 years, that pipeline is there and ready".

I'm not sure if I'm the only one but I find an Amazon led tech education quite scary. I'm all for tech education but I doubt that there won't be an agenda within th e education.

Today's #Covid19Cymru figures are pretty much in line with what I would have expected given the trend; i.e. they send the averages slightly up and are in line with expectations for the day of the week.
Cases: 1004
7-day average: 1028 (UP 28)
R (est): 1.14 (DOWN 0.02)

There were 16 new deaths reported today.
Total now 2,539
7-day average: 23.29 (UP 0.71)

LOL I can relate to this way too much.

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
