No new coronavirus hospital deaths recorded on Merseyside

No further coronavirus deaths were recorded in Merseyside's hospitals across the whole of this weekend.

Despite the region suffering hundreds of coronavirus deaths in hospitals, the number of deaths in hospitals has fallen dramatically.

Today's figures released by NHS England cover deaths recorded in hospitals and do not include deaths in other settings such as homes and care homes.

The data also reflects when deaths are recorded not when they actually occurred. There have also been reporting lags at weekends.

The North West as a whole reported no additional coronavirus deaths across all the region's hospital trusts.

Nationally, a further nine people have died in hospital after testing positive for Covid-19.
