The COVID-19 positivity rate in the National Capital Region (NCR) dropped to 8.9%, the lowest positivity rate in the region since July 4, according to independent group OCTA Research.

David said the COVID-19 reproduction number in the region was at 0.65 as of October 31, with a one-week growth rate of -35%.
The OCTA research fellow said the seven-day average of new cases in the NCR also went down from 411 to 269 as of November 3.ADAR is the incidence showing the average number of new cases in a period per 100,000 people.“If current trends continue, this would project to less than 100 new cases per day in the NCR by end of November,” David said.
