The Office for National Statistics is due to release the first publication of the coronavirus death toll to include deaths outside UK hospitals (so in care homes and in the community), giving a more accurate indication of the true number. The bulletin will contain the numbers of deaths involving Covid-19 - specifically, where Covid-19 was mentioned anywhere on the death certificate, including in combination with other health conditions. The death toll as of yesterday was 1,408 and with the inclusion of non-hospital deaths, this could rise significantly.
