Matt Hancock has announced the number of people in the UK who have died after testing positive for coronavirus is 39,045. In today's government press briefing, the health secretary said there had been a further 111 deaths in the last 24 hours, however he failed to mention the additional 445 deaths that had previously not been included in the daily figures.

Therefore, there has actually been an increase of 556 deaths to the UK death toll from yesterday's figure of 38,489, although the government is reporting the day-on-day change as 111.

On June 1, the cumulative totals for deaths in the UK have been revised to include historic data. These 445 extra deaths in England relate to the period between April 24 and May 31.
