All of Scotland has dropped to the lowest level of its five-tier system of coronavirus measures – but there is no “wholesale abandoning” of restrictions, Nicola Sturgeon said.

Face coverings in shops and public transport will remain mandatory for “some time to come”, while social distancing will reduce to one metre inside public places as the shift to Level 0 kicks in, the First Minister said.
