A further 12 people have died after being diagnosed with coronavirus across the Bristol region.
The Government's latest breakdown of data shows six deaths were confirmed in North Somerset.
Four fatalities were reported in Bristol, Bath and North East Somerset recorded one death, as did South Gloucestershire.
Meanwhile, infections across Bristol and its neighbouring areas soared today by 589.
Our city saw the biggest jump of 246 cases. This has brought our Covid rate per 100,000 to 341.4 - double compared to our rate in mid-December.
But because cases have been soaring across the UK, our national ranking has only risen by around 20 places, from 270 to 252.
England's Covid rate has hit an all-time high at 546.9.
The figures come of the same day that Weston Hospital stopped admitting non-Covid patients in a bid to reduce the transmission of the virus.
University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust - which runs the Bristol Royal Infirmary and Weston General Hospitals - currently have 169 Covid-19 patients with eight on ventilation.
That means coronavirus patients are taking up almost a fifth of their beds.
