Rules for Scotland:

On Tuesday 23 February, the First Minister announced a new framework for leaving the Covid-19 restrictions:

Level 4 restrictions will remain in place until at least the end of April, at which time variable levels may be reintroduced across Scotland.  Depending on case numbers, non-essential retail, hospitality, gyms and hairdressers may also be able to re-open at the end of April.

The vaccination programme will now be offered to unpaid carers and those with an underlying health condition. The Scottish Government aims to offer the vaccine to everyone on the JCVI priority list by mid-April.

It is also hoped that every adult in Scotland will have been offered their first dose of the vaccine by the end of July, but this is dependent on the stocks of the vaccine.

The public should continue to follow FACTS and work from home. Travel should only be made for an essential reason. Current case figures can be found here.
