The Scottish Government has confirmed that six people have died from coronavirus in the last 24 hours.
The latest figures for Scotland showed that 2, 363 new cases had been identified overnight, bringing the total number since the pandemic began to 299,848.
It means the death toll since last March – of people who first tested positive for the virus within the previous 28 days - has risen to 7,735.
There are currently 346 people in hospital confirmed to have the virus with 32 being treated in intensive care.
3,879,458 people have received the first dose of vaccination, with 2,791,071 getting their second.
It comes as Scottish Conservative leader Douglas Ross says Scots will have to "learn to live" with coronavirus in the future.
He is calling for restrictions to be lifted and a return to normality despite the high number of cases throughout the country.
Scotland had six of Europe's top 10 covid hot spots, a World Health Organisation (WHO) report revealed last week.
SNP MP David Linden said the lack of border controls by the UK Government are what allowed the Delta variant to spread.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced plans today for no masks or social distancing from Monday July 19.
However, Scotland will not lift the majority of restrictions until Monday August 2, according to First Minister Nicola Sturgeon.
