Harrogate District Hospital has reported that one more of its patients who tested positive for coronavirus has died, bringing the hospital's total so far up to 49.
The person died yesterday and was announced with 204 others in England's hospitals today. Scotland today recorded another five, Wales another 15 and Northern Ireland another six.
England's patients were aged between 26 and 101 years old. Three of the 204 patients, who were aged between 41 and 58 years old, had no known underlying health conditions.
The Stray Ferret has mapped out the rise and subsequent fall in coronavirus deaths at Harrogate District Hospital.
The data shows that the hospital hit a peak in the number of deaths in April and particularly April 6 with four deaths on one day.
Today's death figures are the lowest daily increase in hospitals for around five weeks, when 214 were announced dead from coronavirus on March 29.
Last week the ONS released data on the number of COVID-19 deaths outside of hospitals. In the Harrogate district, 22 people are reported to have died with symptoms of the virus up to April 17th.
