The United Kingdom’s COVID-19 death toll neared 50,000 on Tuesday (2 June), a grim figure for Prime Minister Boris Johnson as he takes steps to ease the coronavirus lockdown, writes Andy Bruce.

The toll now stands at 49,646, including death certificate data for England and Wales released on Tuesday up to 22 May, previous figures for Scotland and Northern Ireland, and recent hospital deaths in England.
