The coronavirus death toll in the UK has reached 35 - and three of these victims were being treated at the same NHS Trust.

More patients died of the virus today at Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust, Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust in Greater Manchester and Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust across Surrey and parts of south London. Now three people have died of Covid-19 at each of these groups.

The total death toll in the country has increased more than 50% in the last 24 hours.

Twenty-two other NHS Trusts have recorded at least one death each since the start of the month. Many of these patients were elderly, and had underlying health conditions.

But dad-to-two Nick Matthews, at 59, was reportedly the youngest person in Britain to die from Covid-19 after being treated at a University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust facility.

Coronavirus questions answered Q: Will my pension be affected? A: It depends what type of pension you’re paying into, how far off retirement you are, or if you have already retired. As a general rule of thumb, the longer you are from retiring, the less reason there is to be concerned. Q: I’ve got a private pension and am a few months off retiring? A: The closer you get to retiring, the more of your pot your pension provider will shift from equities (shares) into other assets, such as cash. Doing so will limit the impact of the slump should you opt for an annuity – an insurance policy that pays out in retirement. Q: I’m retired and I opted for a drawdown pension. How am I affected? A: Drawdowns allow you to flexibly take cash out of your pension pot as and when you want. But your funds remain invested and, therefore, at the mercy of stock markets, so can go down as well as up. Q: I’m in a defined benefit pension, including a final salary scheme, will I be affected? A: Unlikely. While the share slump could well hit the fund you’re in, it’s the responsibility of the firm that’s behind it. As long as the firm – or “sponsor” – is doing OK, you’ll be fine.
