There have been 413 new cases of coronavirus reported in Scotland in the last 24 hours.

Scottish Government figures released on Saturday showed there had been no further deaths of people who had recently tested positive for the virus.

Of the latest 27,866 tests that reported results, 1.6% were positive.

Over three million people have now received the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccination and 1,599,519 have received their second dose.

On Friday, 64 people were in hospital with recently confirmed coronavirus, with three of those in intensive care. Seven people with the virus had been in intensive care for more than 28 days.

Public Health Scotland said a data issue meant the numbers reported on Friday were artificially low and all data missing from that update had been included in Saturday’s figures.
