A new official map has been created to allow people to see how deadly the coronavirus outbreak has been in their neighbourhood.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has published the interactive map below.

You can input your postcode and the tool will tell you how many deaths there have been in your area.

It is worth noting that the data only includes registered deaths verified by the ONS, so at the time of publication was accurate up to April 17.

This data includes where coronavirus was mentioned on a death certificate. The ONS says it counts such deaths if “coronavirus was the underlying cause” or “mentioned on the death certificate”.

The deaths announced in the daily figures will be added to the map in the coming weeks. Be aware that the point on the map is not where the death happened, but simply marks the centre point of the postcode area.

The map shows all deaths that occurred in England and Wales between March 1 and April 17, registered up to April 18, where Covid-19 was involved.

A total of 90,232 deaths were registered in England and Wales during that time; 20,283 of which involved Covid-19.

When adjusting for size and age structure of the population, there were 36.2 deaths involving Covid-19 per 100,000 people in England and Wales.

London had the highest age-standardised mortality rate with 85.7 deaths per 100,000, while in Burnley the figure was 32. Pendle's mortality rate was 38, more than three times that of the the Ribble Valley's 11.

The postcode with the highest number of deaths in Burnley was Queensgate with six.

The next hardest hit were Habergham and Ightenhill along with Rosehill and Burnley Wood, both areas recording five deaths.

There were no deaths registered in Cliviger and Worsthorne or Hapton and Lowerhouse.

Nick Stripe, head of health analysis, Office for National Statistics, said: “By mid-April, the region with the highest proportion of deaths involving Covid-19 was London, with the virus being involved in more than 4 in 10 deaths since the start of March.

"In contrast, the region with the lowest proportion of Covid-19 deaths was the South West, which saw just over 1 in 10 deaths involving coronavirus.

"The 11 local authorities with the highest mortality rates were all London boroughs, with Newham, Brent and Hackney suffering the highest rates of Covid-19 related deaths.

“People living in more deprived areas have experienced Covid-19 mortality rates more than double those living in less deprived areas.

"General mortality rates are normally higher in more deprived areas, but so far Covid-19 appears to be taking them higher still.”
