No further deaths have been reported by Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust in the data released by NHS England today.

The total for the district stands at 51 deaths, with the hospital confirming on Thursday that 82 patients had been discharged after treatment for Covid-19.

The last death confirmed by the trust was on Monday, May 4th. However, it can take several days for deaths to be confirmed and added to official figures, particularly over weekends.

Today’s figures show a further 207 deaths confirmed across England, in people aged between 37 and 100. Of those, 19 patients, aged between 60 and 95, had no known underlying health conditions.

Statistics released by NHS England only cover patients who were treated and died in hospitals. A further 39 people had died in the community across the Harrogate district until April 24, according to information released by the Office for National Statistics this week.
