Amazing. Fewer people died in London over the past few weeks than this time last year - in other words the total death rate is now lower than the average for an ordinary year in the capital.

Deaths in London fall below average for first time since March

The Office for National Statistics revealed that the week between May 30 and June 5 in the capital was the first time any region has recorded below-average deaths since March.
