- The Office for National Statistics has today published
its weekly figures about the number of deaths in England and Wales,
including the number of deaths from coronavirus. These figures are
different from those published by Public Health Wales as they include all
deaths in all settings and cover a different time period.
- The provisional number of deaths from all causes in
Welsh residents in the week ending 22 May was 692; this was 80 fewer than
the previous week. Of these, there were 134 deaths involving coronavirus.
This was just under one in five (19%) of all deaths, and 46 lower than
the previous week.

- Many of Wales’ local authorities are now embarking on
the first phase of resuming library services – with a Click and Collect
service.
- All the library services of local authorities have
continued to offer resources throughout the crisis, such as e-books and
e-magazines through the Digital Library. Welsh Government provided
£250,000 towards digital library resources which enabled public libraries
to provide additional resources during the crisis and has led to
Libraries seeing a dramatic increase in the number of individuals
accessing digital resources.

cases of coronavirus in Wales today bringing the total number of cases to
14,121 – the real figure will be much higher.
- Sadly, there were a further seven deaths reported by Public Health Wales today, bringing the number of confirmed coronavirus deaths reported by Public Health Wales to 1,354.
