Six more die as Greater Manchester's coronavirus death toll reaches 2,100

Six more people have died after contracting coronavirus in Greater Manchester.

The region's hospital death toll has now reached 2,100.

Four more coronavirus deaths were recorded by Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.

Bolton NHS Foundation Trust and Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust recorded one new death respectively.

The total number of coronavirus deaths at hospital trusts in Greater Manchester, as of Friday, July 10 is:

  • Bolton NHS Foundation Trust - 226
  • Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust - 9
  • Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust - 433
  • NHS Nightingale Hospital North West - 6
  • Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust - 550
  • Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust - 6
  • Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust - 178
  • Stockport NHS Foundation Trust - 215
  • Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust - 211
  • The Christie NHS Foundation Trust - 13
  • Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Foundation Trust - 253

The NHS publishes data relating to the number of deaths that have been recorded at each hospital trust in England in the last 24 hours.

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

These often include previously uncounted deaths that took place several days - or even weeks ago.

NHS England's 24 hour figures do not include Covid deaths recorded in care homes or other community settings.

This is because of the time it takes for deaths to be confirmed as testing positive for COVID-19, for post-mortem examinations to be processed and for data from the tests to be validated.

Another 22 people, who tested positive for COVID-19 have died, bringing the total number of confirmed reported deaths in hospitals in England to 29,013.

Patients were aged between 52 and 99 years old and all had known underlying health conditions.
