A total of 1,656 new coronavirus cases have been reported in Scotland in the last 24 hours.
Nicola Sturgeon reported the latest figures at First Minister's Questions in the Scottish Parliament this afternoon, after extending lockdown restrictions yesterday.
Owing to coronavirus cases remaining high, the 'stay at home' law will remain in place for three additional weeks before being reviewed again on February 2.
The new cases reported today represent a total of 7.5 per cent of those tested for the virus on Tuesday.
