There was and it's fixed now.

In other statistical news:

Greece has had a bad time lately and their CMR has almost doubled to 3.235% as had their deaths per 100k which is now at 40.842.

Slovenia has also doubled the rates although they aren't as bad at 2.238% and 114.433.

The countries with the worst CMR (only counting populations above 500k) are: Yemen (29.057%), Ecuador (6.761%), Sudan (6.315%), Bolivia (6.23%), Egypt (5.646%), China (5.336%), Liberia (4.666%), Iran (4.621%) and Afghanistan (4.1%). The global average is 2.199% and Australia is still above that with 3.22%.

In fairness, the CMR of most of those is slanted because they have very low test percentages with Yemen (0.6%), Ecuador (4.04%), Sudan (0.0%), Bolivia (3.3%), Egypt (1.0%), China (11.1%), Liberia (0.78%), Iran (8.45%) and Afghanistan (0.47%). The global average is 14.2% tested and Australia is at 41.77%. Note: as some people have had multiple tests this does not imply that 41% of the population have been tested but it is a useful comparison with other countries.

A better indicator is cases per 100k of population. Again, only counting countries over 500k population we have: Slovenia (5,112), Bahrain (5,135), Armenia (5,199), Belgium (5,400), USA (5,574), French Polynesia (5,818), Czechia (5,860) and Luxembourg (7,165) the worst. The global average is 998.4/100k and Australia has had 110.5/100k. There are 18 countries below 10 cases / 100k; 159 below 100 cases / 100k; and 117 countries above 500 cases / 100k.

In terms of mortalities per 100k, the global average is 21.95 with Australia at 3.56 and the worst affected countries with more than 500k population being: Belgium (160.7), Italy (114.4), Slovenia (114.3), Bosnia (112.9), Peru (112.5), North Macedonia (111.0), Spain (105.3) and Montenegro (100.3). The USA narrowly misses that list with 98.66/100k.

There are now 217 countries with at least 1 case although 24 of those have had no deaths. There are a further 47 countries with less than 2 deaths / 100k; 29 between 2 and 10 deaths / 100k but also 80 countries with more than 20/100k.
