A MAP which breaks down the number of coronavirus-related deaths by each postcode area has been updated.
The Office for National Statistics has updated their map which details the location of deaths across the nation.
Now residents of the Halstead area are able to see how the potentially fatal virus has impacted lives in the area.
The map was updated to include the month of May and includes deaths that have either been caused by Covid-19 or the virus has been a 'contributing factor.'
Due to a time lag in the reporting of figures, caused by the length of time taken between date of death and the date it is officially registered, the true death toll may not be revealed for several months.
However, we have analysed and published the area of every Covid-19 related death in the Halstead region.
All Covid-19 related deaths in the Halstead area:
Halstead Central and West - 8
Hedingham, Gosfield and Greenstead Green - 4
Halstead East and Colnes - 12
Bures Hamlet, Maplestead and Belchamp - 1
Panfield, Finchingfield & Bardfield - 5
Bocking Churchstreet & Blackwater - 13
Marks Tey & Wakes Colne - 2
