One more death recorded in Camden

There was one more coronavirus death recorded in the latest five-day period in Camden.

The dashboard shows 342 people had died in the area by April 19 (Tuesday) – up from 341 on Thursday, the last working day before the Easter bank holiday.

They were among 19,662 deaths recorded across London.

The figures include anyone who died within 28 days of a positive test result for Covid-19, and whose usual residence was in Camden.

Daily death counts are revised each day, with each case backdated to the actual date of death.

Figures reported today are likely to lower as a result of a lag in reporting deaths over the bank holiday.

A total of 149,401 deaths were recorded throughout England by April 19 (Tuesday) – up from 148,990 on Thursday, the final working day before the bank holiday.
