View descriptionShare

The State Government will stop reporting daily COVID-19 numbers from this Friday, with experts saying its become less important information with the number of daily cases decreasing. 

Infectious Diseases Physician and former Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Dr Nick Coatsworth told Oly Peterson on Perth Live it doesn't signal the end of Covid because its going to be with us for our lifestyles, rather a move to living with Covid. 

"What this signals is that public health authorities recognise that the value of reporting daily case numbers is decreasing..."

"We are on a trajectory out of the pandemic, and this is just one of the changes along with isolation going from seven to five days."
