"As of 9am 21 May, there have been 3,090,566 tests, with 128,340 tests on 20 May," the ministry said. "2,064,329 people have been tested of which 250,908 tested positive."
While the health ministry publishes the death toll based on those who definitely had COVID-19, broader figures based on suspected COVID-19 deaths give a much bigger toll.
The broader figures show the United Kingdom's COVID-19 death toll is more than 43,000, the worst in Europe.
