Latest coronovirus death figures in Glasgow revealed
There were eight more coronavirus deaths recorded over the latest weekly period in Glasgow.
The latest figures from the UK coronavirus dashboard show a total of 2,163 people had died in the area by July 17 (Sunday) – up from 2,155 the week before.
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.
Deaths in Scotland are recorded by registration date, and are allocated to the deceased's usual area of residence.
