The analysis on ethnicity and risk did not consider a person's occupation or obesity, even though both are known risk factors for getting seriously ill with coronavirus.

She said the government "must act immediately" to mitigate the risks "so that no more lives are lost". While Labour MP for Tottenham David Lammy said families "are living in fear" and the government "must take urgent action to protect at-risk groups".
