Four care homes in Glasgow recorded 20 or more deaths of residents from coronavirus during the pandemic.
The Glasgow City care homes have some of the highest death rates in the country with over 545 recorded since March 2020.
The figures have been released by a special Crown Office unit created to examine care home deaths and break them down for each home.
At least 3,400 care home residents have died of covid across the country - nearly half of Scotland's 'covid confirmed' death toll.

The Crown Office statistics detail how many have died in each care home except where homes have four or fewer deaths for reasons of confidentiality. There are 198 care homes with fewer than five deaths.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has admitted that discharging people from hospital to care homes in the early stages of the pandemic was a mistake with more than 1,300 elderly people sent to care homes before a proper testing regime was in place.
Speaking on Sunday, she said: “I am committed to establishing in Scotland a judge-led public inquiry to examine all aspects of our handling of the pandemic - including the situation in our care homes - and to have this underway before the end of this year.
“However, there is no doubt it would be beneficial to have an inquiry that could look across the four nations as well as at specific issues within each nation.”
