You asked
Given that a significant number of death registrations are very delayed due to coroner's inquests (especially regarding children and young people) please provide an up to date analysis of all Covid deaths since January 2020, by age and week of occurrence formatted to match Table 5 in the weekly mortality dataset.
We said
Thank you for your enquiry.
We have published Deaths due to COVID-19, registered in England and Wales for 2020 and 2021 which is using non-provisional data and will include some late registrations, however it may not include unusually late registrations such as the one you have referenced.
We will publish 2022 data in July 2023 to allow the inclusion of late registrations, for more information please see our Impact of registration delays on mortality statistics in England and Wales publication.
