Apologies for being late on parade today. Been tied up with work.
You may remember that I pointed out the government had altered the way in which it reports new deaths the other day, by discounting 109 deaths as being historical (despite historical deaths usually being counted on the day they are announced). Had they been included in the daily count, the 7-day average for new deaths would have now increased for 4 of the past 6 days.
Also of note in today's statistics is that the 7-day average for deaths in UK hospitals has also increased (for the first time in 3 weeks), alongside the average for deaths in all settings.
