    367 yesterday? Is that an update on the number released for yesterday (180), or what?

    If the NHS system works the same way as in Sweden a death is counted on the day it's registered, even if the death occured a few days earlier. Our stats show a dip every weekend and an increase on Mondays and Tuesdays, but it has more to do with the way the system works rather than actual deaths.

    that's just England as well. will be a few more when they add the rest.
