Figures in Scotland have been relatively positive this last week. The exponential rise in cases has stopped. Cases have levelled off at around 1000-1200 a day for the past week or so. Hospital admissions are only averaging around 40-50 admissions a day. On top of all that, ICU numbers have been steady at around 80 patients for the last week.
Scotland seem to be managing the second wave well, the Scottish Government have said they’re cautiously optimistic. Therefore, further more restrictive measures don’t appear to be on the horizon.
