Figures show 9,108 patients waited longer than four hours, more than a third of all who went to A&E.
The Scottish government's target is for 95% of A&E patients to be discharged or admitted within four hours
It began publishing weekly A&E statistics in February 2015 over concerns that the figure had dropped to 86%.The previous lowest rate for meeting the four-hour target was 66.2% at the end of March.Scottish Conservative health spokesman Craig Hoy said the latest figures should be "a new source of shame" for Health Secretary Humza Yousaf
"The health secretary has been asleep at the wheel and has refused to accept that his NHS recovery plan has failed to fix the problems in our NHS.""While frontline NHS staff work tirelessly around the clock, Humza Yousaf has completely failed to make any meaningful attempt to address the underlying problems or control this crisis," she said.
"In the four weeks leading up to Sunday 3 July, there was an over 100% increase in Covid-related staff absences. This is coming at a time when we have increased numbers of staff on well-deserved leave during school holidays.
