The latest figures detailing the number of people diagnosed with Covid-19 in the 24 hours to 1 June 2021 in Scotland are shown below, showing a further increase in the seven day test positivity rate.
Across Scotland this is now at 3.1%, although it was at 4/2% yesterday the highest since mid-March. Scottish Conservatives are calling for Covid restrictions to be eased, but it is widely anticipated that the government will take their by now customary cautionary approach. The First Minister is making a statement to parliament this afternoon.
Glasgow remains in Level Three for now, meaning that travel in and out of the area is for essential reasons only. Both the proportion of cases and of positive tests have continued to rise in Glasgow, with the April-02 variant thought to be driving the spread, meaning the city will remain in Level 3 for at least another week.
