For that reason, we have decided that from Monday face coverings will be mandatory on all public transport. And unfortunately I also have to report that in the last 24 hours, 2 deaths have been registered of patients who have been confirmed through a test as having Covid-19 – that takes the total number of deaths in Scotland, under that measurement, to 2464.

Restrictions on moving house will also be lifted on 29 June. One of those harms is loneliness and isolation, particularly for older people living alone and lone parents.

If we can suppress the virus more - get as close as possible to eliminating it - then we give ourselves a better chance, not just of controlling future outbreaks, but of doing so through more targeted measures, rather than general, blanket restrictions on our way of life. Indeed part of the reason I am taking a cautious approach to easing lockdown is to help do precisely that by suppressing the virus now as much we can. Do not go inside someone else’s house, or allow someone from another household to go inside yours, even to use the toilet. From Monday 29th June, some further Phase 2 changes will take effect.
