The latest figures detailing the number of people diagnosed with Covid-19 in the 24 hours to 6 May in Scotland are shown below.
The number of new cases was possibly understated yesterday due to a data flow issue from UK Government testing sites since around 3pm on Tuesday, and today’s figures include the unreported figures from yesterday.
The whole of Scotland went into Level Three from 26 April 2021. There is a government table reproduced below outlining what you can and cannot do when Level Three restrictions apply.
On 17 May 2021 Scotland is expected to move into Level Two allowing people to meet indoors in small groups with a proposed further move to Level 0 on 7 June.
As at 2 May, 10,097 deaths were registered in Scotland where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate, according to statistics published by National Records of Scotland.
In the week 26 April – 2 May, 19 deaths were registered that mentioned COVID-19 on the death certificate, a decrease of four deaths from the previous week.
