We said

​Thank you for your enquiry regarding deaths involving COVID-19 in Scotland.

We are responsible for the production of mortality data for England and Wales, this is driven by information collected from the death certificate at death registration. Therefore, we do not hold the data you have requested. National Records Scotland (NRS) are responsible for statistics pertaining to Scotland and can be contacted at foi@nrscotland.gov.uk.

We do report headline figures for deaths involving COVID-19 in Scotland in our Deaths Registered Weekly in England and Wales publication. However, this does not include age disaggregation or consider any pre-existing conditions.

This publication is updated every Tuesday.
