Coronavirus: What we know about Northern Ireland's death toll

The Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (Nisra) releases a weekly statistical bulletin giving information on deaths in Northern Ireland related to coronavirus.

The figures cover all fatalities where coronavirus has been recorded on the death certificate.

Here is a look at what the latest figures, published at 09:30 on 29 May 2020, tell us.

The latest figures show that 716 deaths had occurred by 22 May.

It shows that by last Friday, 380 (53.1%) of the 716 deaths it recorded in total had been care home residents.

Of those deaths, 318 (53.1%) occurred in a care home, with the remaining 62 taking place in hospital.

The numbers also show that deaths involving coronavirus in Northern Ireland have fallen for the fourth week in a row.

In the week ending 22 May, the percentage of all Covid-19 related male deaths was 49.5% and female deaths 50.5%.

People aged over 75 accounted for almost 80% of all Covid-19 related deaths in Northern Ireland.

Of the 11 councils, Belfast recorded the most deaths, 209, while Fermanagh and Omagh had the fewest deaths, recording 16 by 22 May.

Nisra said the total number of deaths from any cause registered in Northern Ireland in the week ending 22 May was 325.

That was down from 396 in the previous week - but higher than what would be expected at this time of year.

The five-year average death rate in Northern Ireland is 290.
