Doctor taking away a coronavirus patient
The death toll in the United Kingdom arising from the deadly Coronavirus pandemic has hit 27,510.
It is a rise of 739 on yesterday’s tally – with data now combined to include deaths in hospitals, care homes and the wider community, according to The Sun.
This includes deaths in all settings, such as hospitals and care homes.
The rise in deaths is bigger than it was yesterday, when 674 fatalities were recorded across the UK.
Until this week, the Government had only released the number of coronavirus deaths in hospitals each day – excluding a significant proportion of the overall toll.
Earlier today, NHS England announced a further 391 had died in English hospitals, bringing the overall tally in England 20,483.
Patients were aged between 30 and 103 years old and included a healthy 43-year-old.
In Scotland, 1,515 people have now died from the killer bug – up 40 since yesterday.
In Wales, 17 more deaths were announced today, bringing the death toll there to 925, The Sun reports.
