This is a huge relief. Long may it continue.
Past weeks here.

Martin Lovett – RIP
He died April 29, though it was missed here. So RIP indeed.

Eight weeks ago is hardly “since the Covid-19 outbreak.” It’s not even since the outbreak in the UK started but rather since the UK government decided to impose major restrictions on movement. But, you’re right, it’s good if there are no deaths to report.
