There was a slight fall in the total number of deaths registered in England and Wales in the week ending 24 April - driven by a decrease in the number of hospital deaths, according to new figures.
In the seven days to 24 April, there were 21,997 deaths registered in England and Wales - 11,539 more than the five-year average, according to the Office for National Statistics.
However, that week saw the first decrease in the weekly total number of registered deaths since 20 March.
The number of deaths registered in the week to 24 April was 354 less compared with the previous week.
Previous figures have shown deaths in Scotland also falling, although rising in Northern Ireland that week.
This suggests it may be the week the UK came through its peak mortality rate amid the coronavirus crisis.
Deaths occurring in hospitals in England and Wales decreased by 12.6% in the week to 24 April compared to the previous week, from 9,434 to 8,243.
But there was a different picture in care homes, where the number of registered deaths increased by 8.1% from 7,316 deaths to 7,911.
And deaths in private homes increased by 5.8% from 4,570 to 4,834.
