There are 132 people in hospital in the last 24 hours with recently confirmed Covid-19.
Scottish vaccination figures now stand at 3,477,378 people having received their first dose of a covid vaccine and 2,402,700 people having received their second dose.
These figures come as we reported that the Euro 2020 fanzone at Glasgow Green opened to football fans yesterday.
Professor Jason Leitch has suggested that supporters attending the outdoor viewing space could have testing kits posted to their home.
The Scottish health boss said the idea was being considered as he defended the decision to allow fans to enter the site without a negative test or proof of vaccination.
