(Riya Singh, Intern Journalist): The UK has said it will pause reporting on deaths from coronavirus while analyzing how they are calculated. The government said deaths in England last week were counted as coronavirus-related because the deceased had the disease at any time. Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland will report deaths as virus-related only if they had a positive test within 28 days. The overall number of Covid-19-associated deaths in the UK is now 45,752, in new estimates released Sunday.
