Harrogate hospital reports two more coronavirus deaths
Harrogate District Hospital has reported that two more of its patients who tested positive for coronavirus have died.
One of the patients died on Wednesday while the other patient died on Thursday.
It comes as a further 738 people died after testing positive for coronavirus across hospitals in England.
The patients were aged between 32 and 101 years old.
30 of the 738 patients, who were aged between 34 and 92 years old, had no known underlying health conditions.
Another 109 patients died in hospitals across Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust said yesterday that so far 51 of its patients have recovered from coronavirus. The hospital will release the number of recoveries every Thursday.
The number of deaths in the Harrogate district now stands at 28, though these only include people who have been tested and treated in hospital. Any which happened elsewhere, such as care homes, would not be tested so are not counted in official figures.
