The total coronavirus death toll in the UK has risen by 160 - the lowest since the lockdown began.
This figure includes those who died outside hospitals, and brings the number of lives lost to the virus to 34,796.
The figure is slightly lower than yesterday, and it is the lowest daily figure since March 24, the day after Boris Johnson brought in the lockdown.
But officials have previously warned that reporting lags at weekends means the numbers could be lower than the true total.
Another 2,684 positive Covid-19 cases have been confirmed, taking the total number in the UK to 246,406.
Earlier today it was announced that 134 people have died of Covid-19 in hospitals, bringing the total to 28,533.
In England 122 more people died in hospitals of Covid-19, meaning 24,739 people have now died in the country's hospitals having caught the bug.
A further four people have died in Welsh hospitals, bringing the total there to 1,207, while Northern Ireland's total climbed six to 482.
A total of 2,105 patients have died in Scotland's hospitals after testing positive for coronavirus, up by two from 2,103 on Sunday.
It was announced earlier today that the Nightingale Hospital in Manchester is the only one of the specialist hospitals still treating patients in the UK.
In an indication of a slowing to the disease's spread, the Prime Minister’s official spokesman said the London and Birmingham hospitals were “on standby” and are not accepting patients.
The spokesman said: “Manchester continues to treat patients and Harrogate and Bristol are ready to take patients to ease pressure on existing hospitals if and when required.
“Sunderland opened last week and is not expecting to treat patients imminently, Exeter is currently being built and is expected to be operational later this month.”
“The fact that the Nightingales have not had to be used in a significant way is testament to the sacrifices of the British public and the hard work of the NHS in keeping the infection rate down and ensuring that extra capacity is made available in existing hospitals.”
In a bid to keep the rate of infection in the UK low, everyone who enters the country will have to spend 14 days in quarantine.
Within days people arriving from any country except Ireland will soon have to isolate for two weeks - with exemptions only for some people like lorry drivers or scientists.
Critics have blasted the government for only introducing quarantine months after the outbreak was imported to the UK.
But airline chiefs have warned the quarantine will devastate their business with Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary branding it “idiotic” and “unimplementable”.
