This means that some of the deaths that were first recorded in the latest period may actually have taken place days earlier.
Public Health England confirmed that the UK has recorded a further 333 Covid-related deaths in the latest reporting period and 14,104 new positive cases.
The Government figures include confirmed cases only as some people who have the virus are not tested.
