During the European winter wave of 2020, case numbers peaked on November 8th 2020, when there were 388 cases per million people.
During the European summer wave of 2021, case numbers peaked on July 22nd 2021, when there were 186 cases per million people.
This year, on June 25th 2022, Europe recorded a Covid-19 case rate of 398 cases per million people, and the wave is still growing.

It’s clearly too late for collective sanity to kick in with this pandemic. Just look after yourselves and those you care about!
