One more person with coronavirus has died in hospital in Greater Manchester

One more person has died in Greater Manchester's hospitals having contracted  coronavirus.

The region's hospital death toll now stands at 2,165, latest NHS daily figures show.

In the last 24 hours, one COVID-19 death was reported at the Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust.

Nationally, this was the only coronavirus death in hospital announced by NHS England.

The patient was 82 years old and had known underlying health conditions.

The total number of coronavirus deaths at hospital trusts in Greater Manchester, as of Sunday, August 23 is:

  • Bolton NHS Foundation Trust - 230
  • Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust - 9
  • Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust - 451
  • NHS Nightingale Hospital North West - 6
  • Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust - 565
  • Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust - 6
  • Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust - 181
  • Stockport NHS Foundation Trust - 227
  • Tameside & Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust - 224
  • The Christie NHS Foundation Trust - 13
  • Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Foundation Trust - 253

Each day the NHS in England publishes the number of deaths recorded by each hospital trust in the last 24-hour period.

These are deaths where the person had tested positive for the virus or where COVID-19 was mentioned on their death certificate.

NHS England's daily figures sometimes include previously uncounted deaths that took place several days - or even weeks ago.

They do not include deaths in care homes or community settings.
