(n/a – number of cases not applicable for Golden Jubilee National Hospital) * less than five Numbers in hospital were previously reported in this table as the total of confirmed and suspected. However from 5 May 2020 onwards these are confirmed only. This is due to discontinuity in suspected cases due to increased levels of screening. Testing On 12 June there were:
4,323 tests carried out by NHS Scotland in hospitals, care homes or the community, making a total of 214,476 COVID-19 tests through NHS labs to date.
In addition, 1,413 drive through and mobile tests were carried out by the Regional Testing Centres (RTCs) in Scotland, bringing the total of those to 75,281 tests to date.
As of 11 June:
At least 44,522 key workers or symptomatic family members had been tested through NHS laboratories.

As at 11 June, 748 people delayed in hospital. This is 864 less than the baseline period (04/03 weekly return).
As at 8 June:
179,997 people in Scotland are identified as at high clinical risk of Covid-19 and are advised to shield.
Almost three quarters (130,908 people) are aged 55 or over and 2% (3,940) are children under the age of 16. Demographic breakdowns of those on the shielding list at 1 June are published in the PHS Coronavirus (COVID-19) weekly report for Scotland referenced at the bottom of this webpage.
Local authorities have had direct contact with 85% of those advised to shield (either through proactive contact or receipt of calls) to discuss support needs.
A total of 99,376 people are registered with the shielding SMS service.

Health and social care staff
5,193 NHS staff, or around 3.1% of the NHS workforce, reported as absent on 12 June due to a range of reasons related to COVID-19.
2,315 staff were reported as absent in adult care homes due to COVID-19, based on returns received from 858 (79%) adult care homes as at 9 June. Staff absent due to COVID-19 represents 5.1% of all adult care home staff (45,816) for whom a return was provided.
The absence figures for NHS staff and care home staff are calculated in different ways and caution should be exercised in making comparisons – see the data sources and definitions document for full details. Deaths of health and social care workers related to COVID-19 As at 9 June, we have been notified by Health Boards or the Care Inspectorate of 7 deaths of healthcare workers and 11 deaths of social care workers, related to COVID-19. We are not able to confirm how many of these staff contracted COVID-19 through their work. We update this information every Wednesday.

The data reported is management information based on a range of operational systems. While checks are completed before publication to ensure data robustness, due to the speed of reporting these data are not currently subject to the full range of processes and quality assurance that would be required for Official Statistics.

COVID-19: modelling the epidemic in Scotland The Scottish Government, like other governments around the world, is responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. A key part of this response is to model the potential spread and level of the virus in Scotland, and to compare the Scottish experience to other parts of the UK and other countries around the world. The results of this work are used to help the Scottish Government and the wider public sector, and in particular the health service, plan and put in place what is needed to keep us safe and treat people who have virus e.g. to decide how many Intensive Care Beds (ICU) we need for Covid patients. Modelling reports are available on the Coronavirus (COVID-19): modelling the epidemic publications page More data on COVID-19 deaths A weekly report on COVID-19 related deaths (including those where COVID-19 is suspected) is available from National Records of Scotland (NRS). This report provides a breakdown of deaths by age, sex, setting (hospital, care home or home) and area (NHS Board area and Local Authority). It is updated every Wednesday.

It also looks at some of the wider impacts of the virus on the healthcare system, comparing recent trends in activity with historic norms. It is updated every Wednesday.
