68 is really quite good considering that huge increase in numbers coming forward for testing. 0.4% of tests were positive.

Increase in cases was always going to happen.

Aberdeen shouldn't have been kept in lockdown for another week or at least should have been in a phase out of the lockdown this week.

More testing is happening here and because of the oil & gas industry more testing has always been happening here.

More testing, more cases.

71 new cases in Scotland yesterday out of 7100 tests. So 1%.

Despite the increase in cases over the last 3 weeks, the number of people in intensive care remains at its lowest level to day, 2 in total.

Pretty sure that there are virtually no more cases here in Ayrshire and Arran. I think that even if we do have an increase in numbers, we should keep going with getting things back to normal.
