TWO new cases of coronavirus have been found in Powys today.
Public Health Wales figures show the number of confirmed cases in Powys has increased to 464, although the true figure is likely to be higher.
Powys Teaching Health Board has suggested Office for National Statistics (ONS) data to be the most accurate.
The ONS date shows deaths where coronavirus may have been present since the epidemic began.
The total number of deaths in the county from the virus remains 95.
There has been 48 in care homes deaths, 38 deaths in hospital and nine in a home setting.
The ONS figures are considered the most accurate representation of the spread of the disease in Powys, despite including cases where coronavirus had not been confirmed in a laboratory, which the official data from Public Health Wales does not cover.
