Numbers being manipulated

I don't know if the problem is in the government's reporting, or if it is in the reporting, but this is odd. For the past week there have only been 10 critical patients, but in that same time period 53 people have died. I don't know how the number of critical patients remains the same while the death toll climbs.

Finally, today the critical patient count increased to 12.

Some of the cases in WA died quickly before they could be treated. Some of the cases were identified posthumously.

That's probably what's messing up the numbers for you.
