The latest data from NHS England shows there have been three further deaths confirmed in the Swindon in the last 24 hours making the total number of deaths at the hospital 108.
Across the whole of England the daily figure is reported at 174 leaving a total of 24,913 deaths.
Daily death counts are revised each day, with each case backdated to the actual date of death. This means some deaths recorded in the last 24 hours may actually have taken place days earlier.
As well as including patients who tested positive for the disease, the hospital statistics now also include patients who died in hospital and hadn’t tested positive but for whom Covid-19 is documented as a direct or underlying cause of death on their death certificate.
