Todays number, 170, the lowest since 24th March.

I can see further changes to the lockdown, and Scotland will follow in a week or so.

There's still going to be fatalities, just at numbers that he NHS can handle.

A major issue will be people not WANTING to return to something closer to normal.

Late summer holidays could well be back on.........................

(CNN) — The world's biggest tourist playground has been roped off since it became a coronavirus epicenter, but as summer looms Europe is desperate to lift restrictions to get visitors pumping much needed cash into stricken economies.
Across the continent, various nations currently sitting behind the firewall of quarantines or sealed frontiers, are figuring out how they can once again welcome holidaymakers.
Last week, the European Union unveiled an action plan to get its internal borders reopening, safely fire up its hospitality sector and to revive rail, road, air and sea connections that have been strangled during the pandemic.
It's a situation eagerly anticipated by millions of would-be travelers, desperate to enjoy a slice of European sunshine and culture after weeks or months being sequestered at home under lockdown.

So lockdown starts easing on the 28th May up here.

I have to say this is the right call and the timing is clever.

By that date Sturgeon will have clearly seen if England suffers a spike in infections and can halt it if necessary. She wouldn't have gone earlier because of that. She wouldn't have wanted to wait much longer either as that would have tested public patience if England had seen no second spike.

She's played this really well TBH.

Today's number, 160, another massive improvement.
Credit to everyone who's doing what they should have been. :clapping
Certainly good progress, with the weekend accounting gap we might see between 4 and 5 hundred tomorrow, would be so happy if it was significantly less.

No credit required to anyone. The peak of infections came before lockdown and infections have been almost entirely nosocomial.

The virus would have run its course by itself. Deaths wouldn’t even have reached a mild flu season. 

The decision to ‘protect the NHS’ and to throw care homes under a bus has been a deadly catastrophe. 
 

Boris and Nicola have unnecessary killed tens of thousands and destroyed the economy with their decisions.
