Is Scotland starting to get to grips with Covid?

Scotland is starting to win the battle against Covid-19, according to a leading expert in infection and immunity.

Dr Christine Tait-Burkard, from the Roslin Institute at Edinburgh University, said she was now “less concerned” about the virus amid declining case numbers.

From daily figures of more than 7000 new cases at the start of September, data on Tuesday showed just over 2000 fresh infections.

Dr Tait-Burkard told STV current affairs show Scotland Tonight that the current case numbers and the success of vaccines spelled “good news for winter to come”.
