UK government to release care home death figures

The British government is expected to give updated figures for the number of people who have died with Covid-19 in the UK's care homes. Until now, the daily briefings at Number 10 Downing Street have only released the number of deaths in National Health Service hospitals. From today, hospital and care home fatalities will be recorded and released together.
