Scotland and Coronavirus - what happens in the future?

I'm in Scotland and I think we have been comparatively fortunate with lower numbers of Covid19 infection and death as the lockdown started at a point where we were a good bit behind London, for eg, in the curve.

There is talk in some quarters that we may not need the proposed hospital site at the SECC.

I'm wondering what that means for the future however - as less of the population will have been exposed to the virus and built up some immunity I would have thought we are more at risk of future outbreaks when lockdown conditions are relaxed in time?

I'm not in Scotland but my parents (in their late 80s) and my brother and his family are. Very glad there haven't been many cases so far. I wonder if it got really bad in England if patients might be transported north of the border if there was spare capacity there.

Just wondering when I will next be able to get up to see Mum and Dad. Not holding my breath on that one, I must say. Sad
