How many people have died in Lancashire?
Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - 337
East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust - 314
Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - 318
University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust* - 247
* Note: As well as the Royal Lancaster Infirmary, this trust also runs two hospitals outside Lancashire - Furness General Hospital, in Barrow, and Westmorland General Hospital, in Kendal - so it is not possible to say how many of the deaths were in Lancashire.
