The Scottish Government announced six new death from coronavirus in Scotland over the last 24 hours.
The latest figures released this afternoon also confirmed 285 people have tested positive in the same time frame, bringing the total number of cases to 221,431.
Scotland's death toll sits at 7,626 since the pandemic began in March last year.
There are currently 168 people in hospital confirmed to have the virus with 20 being treated in intensive care.
To date, 2,625,577 people have received the first dose of the Covid vaccination and 524,812 have received their second dose.
Hundreds of thousands of Scots under 30 have already received the AstraZeneca jab which has now been banned for their age group.
The majority of them work in the NHS or care sectors but some have already received their vaccinations as part of the general roll-out programme.
But last night health experts urged them: “Don’t obsess about it” as they pointed out there had only been 79 cases in the UK out of 20 million people who have been vaccinated.
However, anyone of any age who has had the AstraZeneca Covid jab and is exhibiting symptoms like chest pain or breathing difficulties should seek seek medical advice immediately.
