The time taken for positive results to be received is among the potential factors in a delay between a death happening and being recorded.

Since April 28 2020, NHS England and NHS Improvement also started to report the number of patient deaths where there has been no Covid-19 positive test result but it is documented as a direct or underlying cause of death in the death certification process.

Deaths were recorded at the following hospital trusts in Yorkshire and the Humber:

Doncaster and Bassetlaw Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - 6
