Grim milestone comes just weeks after UK passed 60,000 deaths – showing how quickly second wave has spread
The UKs total Covid death toll has passed 75,000, according to a tally of all fatalities that mention the disease on death certificates.
The grim milestone comes just over a month after the UK surpassed 60,000 deaths in late October, showing how the Covid death toll accelerated since September, having slowed during the summer.
The figure is higher than the governments Covid death toll of 59,051. The latter figure only covers people who have died within 28 days of testing positive for the virus.
