ONE further Covid-19-related hospital death has been reported in Bradford today.
The latest figures from NHS England show the death was reported by Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
The patient died on June 15. It means the total number of reported hospital deaths in the Bradford district now stands at 901 - 638 at Bradford Teaching Hospitals; 261 at Airedale and two at Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust.
Nationally, the deaths of 16 people who tested positive for Covid-19 were reported, taking the total number of Covid-19-related hospital deaths in England to 87,313.
The figures are updated at 2pm each day and include confirmed death cases reported at 4pm the previous day.
NHS England says: "Confirmation of Covid-19 diagnosis, death notification, death certificates and reporting in central figures can take up to several days and the hospitals providing the data are under significant operational pressure.
"This means that the totals reported at 4pm on each day may not include all deaths that occurred on that day or on recent prior days."
