Thank you for your enquiry.
Unfortunately, we do not hold analysis showing a split of over 60's who have died as a result of COVID-19 with pre-existing and no pre-existing conditions.
However, we do hold analysis showing a breakdown of age bands 1-64 and 65 and over.
This information can be found in the following dataset in table 2: Pre-existing conditions of people who died due to COVID-19, England and Wales - Office for National Statistics.
