Covid in Scotland: One more Omicron case detected
Published 6 minutes ago
One additional case of the Omicron variant of Covid-19 has been detected in Scotland, bringing the total to 10.
Nine cases had been reported in previous days, with MSPs told that they were all linked to a single event.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon had said on Tuesday that it was "highly likely - indeed almost certain" that more cases would be detected.
Restrictions on travel into the UK have been strengthened in a bid to slow the spread of the new variant...
...Ms Sturgeon told MSPs that the fact there was no known travel or overseas connection to any of the cases suggested there was community transmission of the new variant in Scotland.
