Scotland is estimated to have the lowest rate of coronavirus infection in the UK, according to new stats.
Around one in 180 people in private households in Scotland had Covid-19 between February 6 and 12, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
Over the same time period, England had one in 115, Wales had one in 125 and Northern Ireland had one in 105.
Scotland saw a drop in infection rate, compared to the previous recorded time scale; January 31 and February 6.
During that time the rate was one in 150.
Deputy First Minister John Swinney said the latest stats are a "further indication that lockdown restrictions are having the desired effect".
Speaking at the Scottish Government's coronavirus briefing on Friday, he also said Scotland has recorded 31 deaths from coronavirus and 885 positive tests in the past 24 hours.
This brings the death toll under this measure - of people who first tested positive for the virus within the previous 28 days - to 6,916.
The daily test positivity rate is 4.4%, down from 3.8% the previous day, and 195,839 people have now tested positive in Scotland since the start of the pandemic.
There are 1,222 people in hospital confirmed to have the virus, down 39 in 24 hours, and 98 patients are in intensive care, up three.
Mr Swinney also said that by 8.30am on Friday, 1,386,152 Scots had received their first dose of a coronavirus vaccine - an increase of 31,186 from the previous day.
He also addressed the return of nursery children and youngsters in P1 to P3 to schools on Monday, as well as a limited number of senior students at secondary who need to do practical work for their qualifications.
Mr Swinney, also the Education Secretary, said: "This partial return of education is an important milestone."
He said at-home, lateral flow testing for Covid-19 will be made available twice a week for staff and students at schools - with around 2,500 schools now having received testing kits and the remainder expected either on Friday or by early next week.
Mr Swinney stressed testing is voluntary but it is "a very important addition to the other safety mitigations that are already in place".
