The total number of #coronavirus deaths in #westmidlands hospitals has fallen to 36 in the past 7 days compared to 73 the week before. Sadly Gloucs and Worcs both saw 1 death yesterday after a week without any. There’ve been none in #WOLVERHAMPTON for a week now.

A third day in a row of no #coronavirus deaths in Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. Nor were there any reported yesterday in Birmingham and the Black Country nor Staffordshire
