Buckinghamshire has now lost 409 people who had tested positive for coronavirus.
The latest weekly total rose by three, counting deaths up until 14th August.
However, in that week, only one death has been registered so far, with the other two added to previous weeks.
We have seen a big slow-down in fatalities since the peak of the pandemic, when we saw dozens lose their lives.
So far in 2020 in Buckinghamshire:
- 230 have died in hospital
- 162 care home residents have been lost
- 2 deaths happened in a hospice
- 12 people passed away at home
- 3 deaths happened in 'other communal establishments'
These numbers are for deaths up until 14th August, but registered up until 21st August.
Here is the weekly ONS graph that shows fatalities by actual date of death, rather than date reported.Recent days may increase as registrations increase.There is a lot of focus on new case numbers, but we need to look at hospital activity, fatalities and other measures too. pic.twitter.com/O2szHcOYOY

Hospital deaths from ONS differ to those from Bucks Healthcare as these could be from hospitals outside their remit but patients are from Buckinghamshire.
The number of deaths at Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust hospitals stands at 135, with the last recorded on 6th August. Those two were the first since 20th July.
