The information requested cannot be provided.

The Hospital Episode Statistics data for March 2020 includes a small number of finished consultant episodes where there has been a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19 in inpatients in mental health hospitals. This number falls below the level that would be reported and the data are thereby suppressed under the disclosure controls applied to this data.

Data for April 2020 are not yet available
