iStockA total of 10,464 people have died in Scotland with confirmed or suspected coronavirus, according to the National Records of Scotland (NRS).
The latest data shows 41 fatalities which mentioned Covid-19 on the death certificate were registered in the week from August 9 to August 15, a fall of 12 on the previous week.
Of the latest deaths, 13 people were aged under 65, eight were 65-74, and 20 were aged 75 or older.
There were five deaths in each of Glasgow, Edinburgh, North Lanarkshire and West Dunbartonshire council areas, with three in the Highland Council area.
The statistics are published weekly and cover all deaths registered in Scotland where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate.
They differ from the lab-confirmed coronavirus deaths announced daily by the Scottish Government because the NRS figures include suspected or probable cases of Covid-19.
