Virus-related deaths revised up to 46,000

-

Britain’s number of deaths “involving” the coronaviru­s has risen to 46,000, substantia­lly higher than the 36,914 fatalities officially reported so far, according to a statistica­l update released on Tuesday. The daily death tolls released in Britain only include fatalities that have been confirmed by a positive test. But the Office for National Statistics (ONS) conducts separate studies tallying all fatalities in which Covid-19 is suspected or mentioned on the death certificat­e.
