People across the country fell silent this morning to remember key workers who have lost their lives during the coronavirus outbreak.
The minutes silence took place at 11am on Tuesday morning to honour those frontline workers who have died.
It took place following a campaign from Unison, the Royal College of Midwives and the Royal of College of Nursing.
More than 100 NHS and social care workers are reported to have died with suspected or confirmed coronavirus.
This includes doctors and nurses, carers, cleaners, porters and bus drivers.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who returned to work yesterday, lead the minute's silence alongside Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Cabinet Secretary Mark Sedwill at No.10.
Mr Johnson tweeted: "This morning I took part in a minute's silence to remember those workers who have tragically died in the coronavirus pandemic.
"The nation will not forget you."
Mr Sunak also shared a post and said: "To the workers who continue to help Britain battle coronavirus, thank you.
"To those who have lost their lives, we won't forget you."
Fellow frontline workers also paid tribute to their colleagues at hospitals up and down the country.
Westminster Abbey also fell silent to "honour the sacrifice of health and care workers who have lost their lives in the service of others".
It comes after new figures show that at least 24,000 people in the UK have died after suffering confirmed or suspected Covid-19.
Today's figures from the Office for National Statistics show that 22,351 deaths involving Covid-19 in England and Wales were registered up to April 25.
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) also reported there had been more than 4,000 deaths in care homes in England.
