Harrogate District Hospital has reported 51 coronavirus deaths since the start of the pandemic.

The hospital has added another death to its total from April 21 as part of another 332 fatalities across England's hospitals today.

Patients were aged between six weeks and 103 years old.  22 of the 332 patients, who were aged between 40 and 96 years old, had no known underlying health conditions.

CORRECTION: Yesterday the Stray Ferret incorrectly reported there had been no coronavirus deaths .There had, in fact, been a death on May 4.

As of May 7, Harrogate District Hospital has released 82 patients after recovering from coronavirus. The hospital reveals its recoveries on a weekly basis.

The number of deaths in care homes is rising according to weekly data from the Office for National Statistics.

The data, which goes up to April 24, now shows that there have been 39 deaths outside of hospitals.

In Harrogate, two people have died from coronavirus in their homes and two have died in “other communal establishments,” so the majority of deaths outside of hospitals were in care homes.
