Why it matters
A record says how long it has been since the series was this high or this low. It puts a single value in the context of the whole published history.
For deaths in reported outbreaks, lower is better. This movement is therefore assessed as a deterioration.
Historical context
33 consecutive earlier weeks were lower.
