Coronavirus – Wednesday’s figures

July 21, 2021 2:24 pm

The number of cases of Covid-19 in Scotland were announced by Public Health Scotland today.

Today marks the day that over three million people in Scotland have received their second dose of vaccine.

Since Monday 19 July all parts of Scotland are now in Level 0. This is not without any restrictions at all, but certainly better than at some stages in the last 15 months or so. There is a table at the foot of this article explaining what they are in detail.

All the details are on The Scottish Government website and are summarised as:

At Level 0:

you can meet socially in groups:
- of up to 8 people from 4 households in your home or theirs – and can stay overnight
- of up to 10 people from 4 households in an indoor public place like a café, pub or restaurant
- of up to 15 people from 15 households outdoors
under 12s do not count towards the total number of people or households meeting outside but count towards the household numbers indoors
you do not need to physically distance from family and friends in a private home
you can travel anywhere in Scotland in Levels 0, 1 or 2 but must not enter a Level 3 or 4 area unless for a permitted reason
you can travel anywhere in England, Wales, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands – before you travel you must check the travel rules in those countries
you can provide informal childcare, for example to look after a grandchild
up to 200 people can attend weddings and funerals
tradespeople can carry out any work in your home such as painting, decorating or repairing
you should work from home where possible

The next significant date is 9 August when the vast majority of over 40s will have a significant level of protection. At that time it might be possible to move beyond Level 0, but it will depend on the data at the time. But in any case the government will not advise an immediate return to full offices working from 9 August. All of these measures will take time to put back in place.

Statistics

Deaths involving COVID-19 for Week 28: 12 – 18 July 2021

As at 18 July, 10,268 deaths have been registered in Scotland where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate, according to statistics published by National Records of Scotland (NRS) today.

In the week 12 – 18 July, 47 deaths were registered that mentioned Covid-19 on the death certificate, an increase of 16 deaths from the previous week.

There were 11 deaths in Glasgow City, six deaths in the city of Edinburgh, and five deaths in Dundee City. In total, 19 council areas had at least one death last week.

1,125 deaths were registered in total in Scotland in week 28 of 2021. This was 100, or 10%, more deaths than the five year average for week 28.

Pete Whitehouse, Director of Statistical Services, said: “The latest figures show that last week there were 47 deaths where COVID-19 was mentioned on the death certificate.

“Eleven deaths were aged under 65, seven were aged 65-74 and there were 29 deaths in people aged 75 or over. 27 were male and 20 were female.

“Thirty-eight deaths were in hospitals, four deaths occurred in care homes, four were at home or in a non-institutional setting, and there was one death in another institutional setting.”
