The official death toll across all settings is now at 44,391 in the latest figures from the Department of Health today. Today's reported death toll of 155 is the exact same figure as last Tuesday. Today's death toll is also 21 more than the lowest death toll recorded on a Tuesday, which was on May 26 when 134 people died. Yesterday's reported rise of 16 deaths was the second lowest daily death toll in the UK since lockdown began, and just one more than the lowest daily rise of 15, on Monday, June 22. It is well above the government’s official toll which counts only confirmed Covid-19 deaths.
