Leeds hospitals record no new coronavirus deaths for 48 hours

Leeds hospitals have recorded zero new coronavirus deaths for the second day in a row.

NHS England has announced that another 62 deaths, including eight in Yorkshire, have been recorded at hospitals across the country.

But for the past 48 hours, hospitals in Leeds have not recorded any new Covid-19 related deaths.

Out of the 62 deaths recorded in the last 24 hours in England's hospitals, the youngest was a 13-day old baby, who had no underlying health conditions, and the oldest was 96 years old.

According to the figures, 2,427 people have now died at hospitals in Yorkshire after testing positive for the virus.

Leeds has recorded the highest number of coronavirus deaths at NHS hospitals (324), while Sheffield has the most cases (2,636) and the highest infection rate (452.5) in the county.

The government has begun easing strict lockdown measures that were introduced in March, saying the number of deaths and hospital admissions continues to fall.
