You’d never know it from the media coverage, or for that matter, the Scottish Government, but the infection level is falling, uniquely, in Scotland.
OMG Wales! I’m praying, humanistically, for you.
The First Minister is staying shtum. Quite right too. We don’t want anyone getting too cocky here.
But, BBC Scotland, I feel sure you’ll want to report the facts, in the public interest, just like when only 94% of A&E patients are seen in time.

No no no BBC don’t report facts or report the truth
BBC report what England’s Westminster tell them to report it’s all part of their propaganda war against Scotland

It is likely a good move for the FM of Scotland to not make a song and dance about Scotland’s numbers reducing, for several reasons, not least because people would let down their guard and there would be even more demands to open up pubs etc again from the BritNats.
Damned if you do damned if you don’t, from the so called media, Scotland has to tread very carefully as usual.

True but then you hold that knowledge in reserve when it can have maximum impact and tonight was that time. Several times during her briefing tonight, and during the Q&A that followed, she emphasised that Scotland’s rates were falling unlike elsewhere. Therefore what she was announcing were preventative measures to stop the cases increasing and NOT measures necessary because the situation was out of control.
In other words she was acting in good time, not running to catch up.

Funny that Wales has had stricter lockdowns than Scotland for almost 9 months. They prevented people from even taking moderate exercise or spending any time outdoors.
It’s almost as though lockdowns don’t work. Wearing masks doesn’t work.
Stopping the virus at the border before it comes into the country through proper quarantine and ensuring the population spends as much time in the Sunshine and fresh air prevents mass deaths.
Since you claim to be a doctor can you explain why Sweden has a much lower death rate than Scotland?
