Nicola Sturgeon will be found a briefing at 10.30 for anyone who wants an update in Scotland. 6 cases of the new variant have been located here.

Will be following, I live in England but DD is at uni in Scotland.

Nothing more concrete yet. She going to ask the treasury to make funds available in case they need to furlough people and asked everyone to work from home if possible.

@BlessedBeTheFruitCake which uni is your daughter at?

Some of the people involved have no relevant travel history and are thought to have caught it through community transmission

She’s at Edinburgh Uni, first year. Getting a bit twitchy that she might not be able to travel back for Christmas.

@BlessedBeTheFruitCake I’m sure it’ll be ok. Edinburgh is a wonderful uni and a great city I hope she is happy there.
