I've been thinking a lot about it today, and I have to say I can't see the rationale for basing a country's reopening primarily on R (reproduction rate) Yesterday 10/05/20: Australia R = ~0.9, 21 new cases UK R = ~0.85, 3923 new cases
Right but it's one that will almost by definition increase again at some point

Definitely. I would assume that if it doesn't increase then the lockdown served little purpose in retarding transmission. They've just clung to the only number that fits their narrative at the moment
