I have, therefore, asked the Authority to respond.</p><p><strong>Professor Sir Ian Diamond</strong> | National Statistician</p><p> </p><p>The Lord Willis of Knaresborough<br> House of Lords</p><p>London</p><p>SW1A 0PW</p><p>01 March 2021</p><p> </p><p>Dear Lord Willis,</p><p>As National Statistician and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority, I am responding to your Parliamentary Questions asking a) when data was first collected on care home deaths from COVID-19 in England <strong>(HL13542)</strong>, b) when the weekly death toll of care home residents from COVID-19 in England was first published <strong>(HL13543)</strong>, and c) how many care home residents in England died from COVID-19-related symptoms in each week from 1 September 2020 to-date <strong>(HL13546)</strong>.</p><p>The Office for National Statistics (ONS) is responsible for publishing statistics on deaths in England and Wales. Mortality statistics are compiled from information supplied when deaths are certified and registered as part of civil registration. The ONS produces a weekly report[1] on provisional deaths involving COVID-19, and from 19 January 2021 onwards it has included data on deaths involving COVID-19 in care home residents in England and Wales in 2020 and 2021<sup>2</sup>. The term &quot;care home resident&quot; used in this publication refers to all deaths where either (a) the death occurred in a care home or (b) the death occurred elsewhere but the place of residence of the deceased was recorded as a care home. The figures should not be confused with &quot;deaths in care homes&quot; as reported elsewhere, which refers only to category (a).</p><p>As well as the ONS mortality data, the Care Quality Commission (CQC; the independent regulator of health and social care in England) provides numbers of deaths involving COVID-19 in care homes and care home residents in England. These data are based on the date the death was notified to the CQC and has been published by the ONS as part of the weekly bulletin<sup>3 </sup>since 28 April 2020. Data on whether the death was a result of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 has been collected by the CQC since 10 April 2020<sup>4</sup>. Table 1 below shows the number of deaths involving COVID-19 in care home residents, by week of notification to the CQC, starting from week ending 4 September 2020.</p><p> </p><p>Yours sincerely,</p><p><strong>Professor Sir Ian Diamond</strong></p><p><strong>Table 1: Number of deaths involving COVID-19 in care homes residents, by week of notification, weeks ending 4 September 2020 to 19 February 2021, England<strong>[2]</strong><strong>[3]</strong><strong>[4]</strong></strong></p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Week number</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Week ending</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Deaths involving COVID-19</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>36</p></td><td><p>04/09/2020</p></td><td><p>21</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>37</p></td><td><p>11/09/2020</p></td><td><p>39</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>38</p></td><td><p>18/09/2020</p></td><td><p>49</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>39</p></td><td><p>25/09/2020</p></td><td><p>58</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>40</p></td><td><p>02/10/2020</p></td><td><p>83</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>41</p></td><td><p>09/10/2020</p></td><td><p>105</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>42</p></td><td><p>16/10/2020</p></td><td><p>142</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>43</p></td><td><p>23/10/2020</p></td><td><p>217</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>44</p></td><td><p>30/10/2020</p></td><td><p>293</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>45</p></td><td><p>06/11/2020</p></td><td><p>456</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>46</p></td><td><p>13/11/2020</p></td><td><p>533</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>47</p></td><td><p>20/11/2020</p></td><td><p>622</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>48</p></td><td><p>27/11/2020</p></td><td><p>706</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>49</p></td><td><p>04/12/2020</p></td><td><p>645</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>50</p></td><td><p>11/12/2020</p></td><td><p>692</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>51</p></td><td><p>18/12/2020</p></td><td><p>731</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>52</p></td><td><p>25/12/2020</p></td><td><p>746</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>53</p></td><td><p>01/01/2021</p></td><td><p>934</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>08/01/2021</p></td><td><p>1,245</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>15/01/2021</p></td><td><p>1,750</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>22/01/2021</p></td><td><p>2,365</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>29/01/2021</p></td><td><p>2,387</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>05/02/2021</p></td><td><p>1,848</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>12/02/2021</p></td><td><p>1,223</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>7</p></td><td><p>19/02/2021</p></td><td><p>843</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>Source: <em>Care Quality Commission</em></p><p> </p><p>[1]https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/bulletins/deathsregisteredweeklyinenglandandwalesprovisional/latest</p><p><sup>2</sup>https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/datasets/carehomeresidentdeathsregisteredinenglandandwalesprovisional</p><p><sup>3</sup>https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/datasets/numberofdeathsincarehomesnotifiedtothecarequalitycommissionengland</p><p><sup>4</sup>https://www.ons.gov.uk/news/statementsandletters/publicationofstatisticsondeathsinvolvingcovid19incarehomesinenglandtransparencystatement</p><p>[2] Figures are for deaths CQC are notified of on the days specified.
