Covid cases in Scotland have roughly doubled every week since restrictions eased, leading to an increase in hospital admissions.
More than 500 people who have tested positive for the virus are in hospital.
National clinical director Prof Jason Leitch said the health service was stretched and increasing cases would delay elective surgeries.
Scotland wanted "to get on top" of the virus and may need a "reverse gear" on some restrictions, he told the BBC.
