The only trust to announce more deaths in England was North Middlesex University Hospital Trust with seven.
Does London REALLY need to be in Tier Three? Only one of the capital s NHS trusts is busier than it was last winter - and just 25 Covid deaths are occurring each day (an EIGHTH of the levels seen in April during the peak of the pandemic)
Of capital s 18 major hospital trusts, only University College London NHS Foundation Trust busier than in 2019
London s NHS hospitals are actually quieter than they were the previous two winters, on average, data shows
Covid deaths and hospital admissions in London are a far cry from the levels seen during the peak of spring
