The UK yesterday reported zero daily COVID-19 deaths in a 24-hour period for the first time since the start of the pandemic, official figures show.
It is the first time since March 11 last year that zero deaths have been reported of people who have tested positive in the previous 28 days.
By this measure, the total number of people who have died remains at 127,782. The last time the daily death toll was zero was on July 30 last year, according to the government’s coronavirus data dashboard.
However separate figures published by the Office for National Statistics show there have now been 153,000 deaths registered in the UK where COVID-19 was mentioned on the death certificate.
