Please could give me the total number of COVID-19 deaths from December 2020 to 30 April 2021 in Surrey.

We said

Thank you for your request.

The number of COVID-19 deaths from December 2020 to 30 April 2021 in Surrey is 1,738, this comes from the following published analysis showing deaths from COVID-19 in Surrey for 2020 and 2021 so far, which is accessible via the following link: Death registrations and occurrences by local authority and health board.

In the tables labelled 'Registrations - Pivot table' and 'Occurrences - Pivot table', you can see how the mortality figures vary week on week using the drop-down toggle and filtering on the week number and cause of death options.

For clarity: The filter/drop-down on the pivot tables for 'All-causes' does not contain COVID-19 deaths. By default, both options are ticked. If you were to untick the COVID-19 option it would deduct from the total deaths, leaving you with deaths from all other causes. Additionally, if both were ticked and you unticked All-causes, it would leave you with the total number of COVID-19 deaths.

The total number of deaths involving COVID-19 in Surrey are available in the following tables:

COVID-19 deaths in the local authorities in Surrey, week 49 (ending 4 December 2020) to week 53 (ending 1 January 2021)
