The death rate of those admitted to intensive care with Covid-19 has topped 50 per cent, according to the latest figures. A figure comes from data compiled by the Intensive Care National Audit and Research Centre (ICNARC) based on a sample of 2,249 coronavirus patients.

The data showed that of the 690 patients in the sample whose care outcomes were known, 346 - 50.1 per cent - had died, while 344 had been discharged.

The remaining patients, 1,559, were reported still to be in critical care. By way of comparison, just 22.4 per cent of patients admitted to intensive care with non-Covid-19 viral pneumonia between 2017 and 2019 died of the disease. Do you have a coronavirus story to share?
