Fourth coronavirus patient dies at Harrogate hospital
A fourth patient has died from coronavirus at Harrogate District Hospital as the number of cases soars over 100.
The latest death in Harrogate comes as a further 367 patients with COVID-19 are confirmed as dead in England.
All of the patients were aged between 19 and 98 years old and all but 28 of them had underlying health conditions.
The number of confirmed cases in North Yorkshire is now at 108 just two weeks after Harrogate District Hospital admitted its first COVID-19 patient.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Defence is in the process of converting the Harrogate Convention Centre into a ‘Nightingale’ hospital to fight the coronavirus crisis.
