At that date, the cumulative number of deaths with Covid-19 on the death certificate on the Isle of Wight since the start of the pandemic was 478.
Confirmed positive cases
As free testing and the obligation to report a positive test has been abolished, the figures are likely to be higher than official sources state.

13 of those are thought to be reinfections (ie. people who have had Covid before and caught it again). Last week this was 12.
The cumulative total since the pandemic began now stands at 45,015 – a rate per 100,000 population of 31,926.
