These are the latest figures on deaths and hospitalisations in Wiltshire.

Wiltshire had 11 recorded deaths in September, where Covid was listed as a cause of death on the death certificate.

This is according to the Government's coronavirus dashboard, which shares the number of deaths where Covid was determined to be a cause.

The data is published weekly by the ONS, NRS and NISRA, and there is a lag in reporting of at least 11 days due to death registrations.

This brings the total number of deaths registered as caused by Covid-19 in Wiltshire to 878.

A woman in her 80s was the latest to die in Salisbury Hospital, after testing positive, on September 27.
