Stab victims accounted for up to 117 admissions to Essex hospitals last year, figures suggest. Data from NHS Digital shows that in hospitals across Essex, there were between 81 and 117 admissions of people following an “assault with a sharp object” in 2020. The data between April 2020 and December 2020 is still provisional and likely to change, making it difficult to confirm a precise number of admissions at this point. In Essex, no fewer than 12 admissions were for under-25s, while 87 were for those older. This compares to between 94 and 118 admissions the year before. Across England and Wales, there were 4,100 hospital admissions after attacks involving a sharp object last year, down from 4,800 in 2019.
