Three coronavirus deaths have been recorded at Frimley Health Trust over the weekend, the latest official figures show.

NHS England figures show 306 people had died in hospital at Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust as of 5pm on Sunday (May 10).

That was an increase of three compared to Friday, when there were 303.

The victims were among 2,679 deaths recorded across the South East.

Of 25 trusts within the region, Frimley Health trust has the highest death toll.

Daily death counts are revised each day, with each case backdated to the actual date of death.

This means some of the deaths that were first recorded in the last 24 hours may actually have taken place days earlier.

NHS England guidance states: "Confirmation of COVID-19 diagnosis, death notification and reporting in central figures can take up to several days and the hospitals providing the data are under significant operational pressure."

Only deaths that occur in hospitals where the patient has tested positive for Covid-19 are recorded, with deaths in the community excluded, such as those in care homes.

Across England, the death toll hit 23,359 on Sunday, up from 22,972.

Separate figures from the Department of Health and Social Care show 219,183 people had tested positive for Covid-19 across the UK as of 9am on Sunday, up from 211,364 on Friday.
