    At the peak of the second wave in mid-February there were 68 covid patients at the hospital.

    Now, the hospital has recorded zero covid inpatients - the first time since August 28.

    Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust tweeted its praise to colleagues for their "immense efforts" over the past year.

    It also thanked the local community for doing their bit to suppress the virus.

    "And thank you to our local communities for following guidance, making sacrifices, being understanding and doing your bit. Especially if you've had the vaccine. Please, keep following the guidance and remain vigilant."
