The number of cases of Covid-19 in Scotland were announced by Public Health Scotland today and are reported below. The number of cases in Lothian is the highest for any area in Scotland for the last 24 hours.

An announcement by the First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon, last Tuesday means that Edinburgh remains in Level 2 for now in view of rising case numbers over recent weeks. The next announcement by the First Minister is due on Tuesday.

As at 6 June, 10,130 deaths have been registered in Scotland where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate, according to statistics published by National Records of Scotland (NRS) on Wednesday.

In the week 31 May – 6 June, eight deaths were registered that mentioned COVID-19 on the death certificate, the same number of deaths as the previous week. 

There were three deaths in South Ayrshire and two in both Glasgow City and North Lanarkshire. The Scottish Borders recorded one death.

The number of deaths from all causes registered in Scotland in this week was 1,051, 3% more than the five year average. 

Pete Whitehouse, Director of Statistical Services, said:“The latest figures show that last week there were eight deaths where COVID-19 was mentioned on the death certificate.

“One death was aged under 65, two were aged 65-74, and five were over 75.

“Seven deaths occurred in hospitals, and one occurred in a care home.”
