A further 58 coronavirus deaths have been recorded in Scotland over the last 24 hours.
The First Minister also announced that 822 new cases of Covid-19 were reported overnight, taking the total figure to 187,542.
1,618 people are in hospital being treated for the deadly virus while 112 people remain in intensive care.
The news came on the day it was announced that all travellers entering the UK will have to take two coronavirus tests while in quarantine in an attempt to prevent mutant variants entering the country.
Arrivals are expected to be required to get a test on days two and eight of their 10-day quarantine period.
This is in addition to the current rules which say travellers arriving in the UK must show proof of a negative Covid-19 test taken in the 72 hours before travelling to be allowed entry and must self-isolate for 10 days.
Anyone arriving without one faces a fine of up to £500, with Border Force officials carrying out spot checks.
