No new coronavirus deaths recorded at Yorkshire hospitals in latest NHS update
Yorkshire hospitals have recorded no new coronavirus deaths in the latest update from NHS England.
It is the third time that every hospital in Yorkshire has recorded zero new deaths in a daily update since records began.
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.
A total of 2,890 people have died at hospital in Yorkshire after testing positive for coronavirus.
