"Coronavirus: Nearly 50,000 excess deaths in England and Wales in first five weeks of outbreak:

More than 33,000 people in England and Wales died from coronavirus as of early May, according to official data published on Tuesday, though estimations suggest there has been close to 50,000 excess deaths.

In the first five weeks of the outbreak, 108,345 deaths were registered by the Office for National Statistics - which is 46,494 more than the five-year average.

The ONS figures also showed care homes now account for a third of all Covid-19 deaths in England and Wales." - @samueljlovett, The Independent (www.independent.co.uk/news/health/coronavirus-deaths-england-wales-excess-ons-covid-19-a9509871.html)
