This is a real letter from an NHS trust that dealt with no Covid-19 deaths

We’ve been asked about and have seen posts which claim to show a Freedom of Information (FOI) request regarding deaths in the South West Yorkshire NHS Partnership. 

The question submitted for an FOI reads:

“I am trying to gather the information regarding to actual deaths with in [sic] the trust due to covid 19 For the period of February 2020 to September 2020.”

And the response: “South West Yorkshire NHS Partnership Foundation Trust has not had any deaths due to Covid-19.”

Reuters have confirmed that this is a real FOI and the information here is correct.

The lack of Covid-19 deaths in this trust can be explained by it being a “specialist NHS foundation trust that provides community, mental health and learning disability services”. As the trust does not provide the type of care needed by people seriously ill with Covid, it’s unlikely they would have dealt with any deaths.

This is not to say that Yorkshire has not experienced any Covid deaths. According to government data, up until the end of September, the English region of Yorkshire and the Humber recorded 5,012 deaths where Covid was mentioned on the death certificate. So while people in Yorkshire have died of Covid-19, it has not been while they were in facilities run by the South West Yorkshire partnership.
