The latest figures from the UK coronavirus dashboard show a total of 552 people had died in the area by Sunday, November 13, one more than the previous week and three more than a fortnight ago.

Public Health Scotland recently stopped reporting deaths for anyone who died within 28 days of a positive test result for Covid-19.

Instead, the weekly figures now include anyone whose death certificate – registered in the week ending Sunday – mentions Covid-19 as one of the causes.
