Coronavirus in Scotland - Stay home & two metre rule remains - BBC News
Nicola Sturgeon emphasises that the "stay at home" message continues, alongside the rule of two metre distancing.
It is "insane" to make MPs return to the House of Commons to vote, a public health expert claims.

There has been a "hybrid" virtual system since mid-April, but MPs today passed a motion to return to a physical parliament and develop a physical voting method that respects health and safety guidance from Public Health England.

Critics say the move would still be "discriminatory" against those unable to attend.

And Prof Linda Bauld, of Edinburgh University, says: "I thought that was a really insane idea to require people to go back into Westminster, in terms of infection controls."

She adds that the science is evolving but "it wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility that immediately occupying the same space as somebody who's been speaking could be a risk".

Commenting on some MPs touching the despatch box as they stepped forward to vote, she adds: "If it was a university environment, we'd be cleaning the podium before the next lecturer came to do their lecture."
