The National Records of Scotland (NRS) said the death rate was 2.1 times higher in the poorest areas.
The NRS analysis confirmed an association with underlying health problems.
Of those who died with COVID in May, 92% had at least one pre-existing condition.
Director of statistical services Pete Whitehouse said: "Every death from this virus is a tragedy.
"These statistics, alongside the other important evidence being made available by the Scottish government and Health Protection Scotland (HPS), are valuable to the understanding of the progress and impact of the Covid-19 virus across Scotland."
