Proportion of deaths in adult social care services, by ethnic group
Note: the numbers at the top of the bars are the total counts of deaths due to suspected or confirmed COVID-19 in that ethnic group in the relevant settings, where stated for that group and where analysable – see the second chapter of the report for more information on the limitations of the data. The percentages at the bottom of the bars are the proportion of deaths that were due to suspected or confirmed COVID-19 in that ethnic group in the relevant settings.
ONS data on all weekly deaths in England (COVID and non-COVID) compared with the average for 2015-2019
Data notes
Chapter 1: For this report we carried out an initial review of feedback and local support plans from 18 out of 33 representatives, covering local stakeholder organisations from hospitals, primary care and adult social care.
Chapter 2: The data on deaths of people with a learning disability is the most accurate data we are able to produce at this point but it has a number of limitations:
- It is not mandatory for providers to tell us if someone has a learning disability when submitting a death notification.
- We could not extract detailed data, including whether or not the person who died had a learning disability, from a small number (around 4%) of the forms we included in this analysis due to the way the information was provided to us – i.e. illegible handwritten forms.
- Despite removing a large number of duplicates from this data, we cannot guarantee that every duplicate has been removed.
- It does not account for those detained under the Mental Health Act – see slides 15 and 29.
