LONDON (Reuters) – The United Kingdom’s death toll from people who tested positive for COVID-19 has risen by 324 to 39,369, the government said on Tuesday.

A separate tally of deaths using official data sourced from each of the United Kingdom’s four countries, drawn mostly from death certificate data and including suspected cases, showed a total of nearly 50,000 earlier on Tuesday.
