New figures show that 24 other people with coronaviruses have died in Scotland, bringing the total to 566.
The Scottish government said 5,912 people had tested positive for the virus, an increase of 322 since Saturday.
In total, 31,114 patients have been evaluated across the country.
A total of 1,755 people were hospitalized Saturday with confirmed or suspected coronavirus, 221 of whom were in intensive care.
This is less than the 1,855 people hospitalized on Friday, the first time there has been a drop in this count since the outbreak began.
Health Secretary Jeane Freeman cautioned against reading too much about the drop in patient numbers in Scottish hospitals.
"It is too early to read something about it," he said.
