Weekly update, reported deaths went up due to correction, reported cases down a little yet less and less get reported
In total 11.6 million new cases were reported last week (down from 12.9 million) to a total of 479,555,832
Also another 49,074 more deaths were reported (up from 36,036) to a total of 6,142,430
Europe is refusing to go down, USA passed 1 million (official counted) deaths.
The continents
Europe and Asia on top, Africa doing the best (or measuring the least)
Those spikes in the Africa line are from Reunion island reporting once a week.
Oceania is mainly New Zealand and Australia keeping the case count up.
Corners of the world
South Korea might be peaking, 2.5 million cases this week compared to 2.8 million last week. Deaths trailing behind: 2,512 this week, 1,907 last week.
Australia is creeping back up, deaths remain around 150 a week.
India is doing really well, although that's where the extra reported deaths come from 4,000 extra compared to last week. (4,504 vs 548 last week)
Europe in detail
The field is spreading out a bit. Reporting is getting less and less reliable though, big gaps and Russia and Ukraine's numbers are likely fudged and incomplete.
It's not over, but the worst should be behind us.

As provinces lift COVID-19 public health measures, some experts are warning that Canada may experience another wave of infections this spring, with wastewater data in many regions showing an uptick in cases due in part to the Omicron subvariant BA.2.
Officials in Ontario, Quebec, Alberta and B.C. say wastewater analysis suggests COVID-19 infections are beginning to climb again. However, experts say it's not yet clear whether Canada's next wave will be a surge or a ripple.
