The number of deaths in the UK from Covid-19 is set to spike tomorrow with new stats revealing a broader picture of the cost of the virus.
The expected rise in death total will come as the government releases stats which include those who died from the coronavirus when not in the hospital, who are currently not included in NHS England statistics.
Figures currently record the number of people who have died in a hospital only, and have so far reported 1,228 deaths across the UK from the virus.
Questions have also been raised over whether the official coronavirus toll accurately reflects the number of deaths seen in hospitals.
