Total of confirmed coronavirus deaths in Calderdale and Huddersfield hospitals passes 100

A further 43 people have died in Yorkshire hospitals after testing positive for coronavirus, NHS England has confirmed.

It brings the total confirmed death toll in Yorkshire hospitals to 1,130.

A further 429 coronavirus deaths have been announced in hospitals in England, bringing the total number of confirmed reported deaths in hospitals in England to 14,829.

NHS England releases updated figures each day showing the dates of every coronavirus-related death in hospitals in England, often including previously uncounted deaths that took place several days or even weeks ago.

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.

The figures published today by NHS England show April 8 currently has the highest total for the most hospital deaths occurring on a single day - 803 - although this could change in future updates.
