The total number of deaths involving coronavirus in Wales has now reached 2,122.
These figures recorded by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) are more complete than the daily total reported by Public Health Wales as they include all deaths where Covid-19 is mentioned on the death certificate.
The daily figures only list deaths where coronavirus has been confirmed in a lab test.
According to the latest figures from on Tuesday morning, there were 134 deaths involving Covid-19 in the week up to May 22. The virus accounted just under one in five deaths registered that week.
It is the the lowest weekly total since the start of April, and the fourth week in a row that the total has fallen.
But a top doctor at a Welsh hospital has given a warning from the frontline, following a drop in new cases.
Intensive care consultant, Dr David Hepburn, who works at Newport's Royal Gwent Hospital says the virus "hasn't gone away" as they have had some new cases.
The number of deaths in care homes in Wales is also falling - it was 44 deaths in the week ending 22 May. This is around a third of all deaths from the virus.
Cardiff still has the highest number of deaths - 341 and Ceredigion the lowest, with seven.
Rhondda Cynon Taf - when population size is taken into account - still has the highest death rate in Wales, 104.5 deaths per 100,000, which is a total of 251 deaths.
Figures this week have show that north Wales health board Betsi Cadwaladr has become the area with the most infections in Wales currently however it has so far seen fewer deaths.
