​I was looking at your website for details on deaths from influenza for 2019/2020 and I saw 2 tables one for the involvement of influenza and one being due to influenza.

Do you have a similar chart for the deaths on Covid 19 for the same period with the same layout?

We said

Thank you for your enquiry.

In figure 2 of the following publication, Deaths Registered Weekly in England and Wales publication, we release a weekly chart showing deaths 'due to COVID-19' and 'deaths involving COVID-19'.

We use the term "due to COVID-19" when referring only to deaths where that illness was recorded as the underlying cause of death. We use the term "involving COVID-19" when referring to deaths that had that illness mentioned anywhere on the death certificate, whether as an underlying cause or not. We have also pasted this information in the following table:
