Public Health Wales reports today that there has been a sustained levelling-off of new COVID-19 cases as lockdown measures take effect.
Dr Chris Williams, Incident Director for the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak response at Public Health Wales, said:
“We seem to have passed the peak and flattened the curve of new cases of Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Wales, which appears to be an indication of the effectiveness of lockdown measures. We are currently working with Welsh Government to determine the best approach for when the lockdown is eventually eased."
Overnight 183 new cases of the virus were recorded across Wales with 44 new deaths. Overall to date there have been 10,155 cases and 969 deaths from individuals testing positive.
7 new cases have been reported in Conwy and 8 in Denbighshire.
