Scottish Government figures reveal there were 25 coronavirus deaths in Scotland over the last 24 hours.
Statistics released online this afternoon show a further 1,327 Scots have also tested positive for the deadly virus.
That takes the total testing positive since the start of the pandemic to 59,201.
Some 1,100 patients are currently being treated in hospital, with 82 in intensive care units.
MSPs are set to vote on Scotland's new five-level system of lockdown restrictions in the Scottish Parliament today.
Members of parliament on all sides of the house will debate the plan drawn up by the government to place different parts of the country into a tiered system similar to the one in England.
If approved the system will come into force on November 2.
It comes as a leaked letter revealed that north and south Lanarkshire are set to head into the highest level when the restrictions are implemented.
Infection levels in Dundee are also causing concern and the city could face greater curbs by being placed into level 3.
Glasgow and Edinburgh face no change by staying at level 3.
The Scottish Government also issued advice this week to Scottish families planning to go guising for Halloween next weekend.
Parents are being asked to keep children home, and dress up for Halloween, or have a family Halloween party at home.
It is being advised that guising from door-to-door should not take place this year to limit the spread of coronavirus.
Last Thursday Scots were warned to get ready for a “digital Christmas” by national clinical director Jason Leitch.
Leitch said: “I’m hopeful costs now may get us a more family Christmas.
"But Christmas is not going to be normal, absolutely no question about that.”
