Age of people who have died of coronavirus to date in the UK

We're waiting for Janine Figliola to read a recent response and update the status.

Dear NHS England,
I would be much obliged if you could provide me with statistics showing the number of deaths for each age from zero to 100 that have resulted from COVID-19 to date.
I am particularly interested in the numbers for 60+, broken down year by year, ie number of deaths for men and women aged 60, men and women aged 61 and so on.
This is in light of the WHO recommendation that people aged 60 or over are at high risk from compilations and deaths due to contracting COVID-19. Despite this being a recommendation the government of v the United Kingdom have chosen to choose a higher age of 70 as being at greater risk.
I believe that this decision may cost this nation many extra lives, making the people agreed over 60 continue to work and not be allowed to self isolate.

Yours faithfully,
Janine Figliola

CONTACTUS, England (NHS ENGLAND & NHS IMPROVEMENT - X24), NHS England

Dear Customer,
 
Thank you for your email.
 
Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, NHS England has paused the
investigation of new and existing complaints. This enables clinical staff,
including GPs, to focus on front line patient care. It also enables our
complaints teams to provide vital support to the NHS.

We will continue to review and acknowledge all new complaints and will act
upon any concerns about patient safety or safeguarding. However, we will
not investigate the complaint or respond until further notice.

All customers awaiting a response to a complaint will be notified that the
investigation is on hold.

 

We will resume our complaints service as soon as possible. In the
meantime, thank you for your patience and understanding.

We are currently receiving a higher than usual volume of emails so it may
take us a little longer to respond. In the meantime, you may find the
following information helpful.
Please note: our normal working hours are 08:00 to 18:00 from Monday to
Friday (excluding Bank Holidays). Emails received at the weekend will not
be reviewed until the next working day.
How can the Customer Contact Centre help me?
NHS England commissions or buys primary care services; for example, GPs,
dentists, opticians, and pharmacy services. We are also responsible for
prison healthcare, military health services, and some specialised
services. We can provide advice about accessing, giving feedback or making
a complaint about these services.
You may be able to find the answer you are looking for in our Frequently
Asked Questions<https://www.england.nhs.uk/contact-us/ho...>
and our website explains how to share feedback or make a
complaint.<https://www.england.nhs.uk/contact-us/co...>
What if I have an enquiry or complaint about hospital care, NHS 111 or
out-of-hours GP services?
If your enquiry or complaint is about secondary care, this includes
hospitals, NHS 111, mental health services, out-of-hours services and
community services such as district nursing, you will need to contact the
organisation that provided the service. All hospitals have a Patient
Advice and Liaison Service
(PALS)<https://www.nhs.uk/common-health-questio...>.
Alternatively, you can contact your local Clinical Commissioning Group
(CCG). You can find their contact details on the NHS
website<https://www.nhs.uk/Service-Search/Clinic...>
Does the NHS England Customer Contact Centre provide medical advice?
No. Our advisors are not clinically trained and are unable to provide
medical advice. If you require emergency medical attention, dial 999 or
attend your local Accident and Emergency department if you are able to do
so.
If you require non-urgent medical advice please contact your GP, local
walk-in or urgent healthcare centre, or call NHS 111. Calls are free from
landlines and mobile phones.

How do I report a change of name or address?
You should report a change of name or address to your GP practice so they
can update their records. If your new address is outside the practice’s
catchment area you may be asked to register with a new GP practice.
You should also advise your dentist or optician of a change of name or
address as they keep their own records.

Where can I find further information about NHS England?

Dear Janine Figliola,  

Thank you for your communications dated 29 April 2020.

Your exact request was:

“I would be much obliged if you could provide me with statistics showing

COVID-19 to date.

NHS England does not hold information in relation to your request.

It may help if we first explain that NHS England is not the same as ‘the
NHS in England’. The NHS in England is not a single organisation but is
made up of a range of organisations such as Hospitals, Clinical
Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and Ambulance Trusts. NHS England is
responsible for commissioning primary care services such as GP and dental
surgeries, as well as some specialised secondary care services. Therefore,
any recorded information NHS England may be able to provide in response to
an FOI request will generally relate to the services NHS England
commissions.

For information on commissioned services and the types of information NHS
England holds can be found on our [1]website and [2]publication scheme.
For further information on the NHS, its structure and other NHS
organisations please refer to the NHS [3]website.

Information in relation to this request may be held by Public Health
England (PHE). As such, you may wish to redirect your enquiry to PHE. You
can submit an FOI request to Public Health England by emailing
