This is significantly higher than any other region and almost double the next highest rate.

The local authorities with the most number of deaths were also all London Boroughs.

The West Midlands has the second highest rate, followed by the North West and the North East - while the South West recorded the fewest number of deaths from the bug.

POSTCODE SEARCH

The map above, created by the ONS shows all coronavirus deaths in England and Wales which were registered before April 18.

The green dots marking the number of deaths in each area are placed at the centre of the local area they represent - and do not mark the exact spot where those deaths occurred.

The dots exclude the number of non-residents who have may have died in the area.
