Between March 7 and March 13, 180 cases were confirmed in the region.
This is an increase of 45 (33%) on the previous seven-day period.
However, as Scotland looks towards an easing of restrictions next month, Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire remain among the council areas with the lowest seven-day rate.
In mainland Scotland, only Argyle & Bute, the Borders, Dumfries & Galloway, Angus, Moray and Inverclyde have a lower rate than Aberdeen or Aberdeenshire.
Glasgow, East Renfrewshire and Stirling are the areas with the highest rates.
