Can you picture 18,000 dead bodies laid out in rows? 'Another 763 people have died in UK hospitals after contracting coronavirus, taking the death toll to 18,100, the Department of Health (DoH) has confirmed. Today’s jump in deaths is another huge daily increase, following a rise of 828 yesterday. The toll was updated after England recorded another 665 deaths. Scotland reported 77 deaths, while 15 were recorded in Wales. Northern Ireland has not yet released its new death toll. The combined daily increase from the three nations (not including Northern Ireland) comes to 757, which is 6 lower than the number – 763 – later released by the DoH this afternoon. There is also a difference in the DoH’s death toll – 18,100 – and the combined figure from England (16,272), Scotland (1,062), Wales (624), and Northern Ireland (216, as of yesterday), which is 74 higher at 18,174. The government has said this difference is because each devolved authority often makes amendments to their own data after reporting deaths to the Department of Health (DoH) each day.' https://metro.co.uk/2020/04/22/another-757-dead-uks-coronavirus-death-toll-passes-18000-12593976/ BBC 1 at 16.30.
