Don Dan Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) (Image: Jane Barlow-WPA Pool/Getty Images) Welcome to Sunday's coronavirus live blog. Nicola Sturgeon announced there was again no new deaths recorded for people who tested positive for coronavirus in Scotland in the last 24 hours. The total number of people who have died after being confirmed to have the virus remains at 2,488. Statistics released on Saturday, which cover the previous day, show there were 11 new cases confirmed. There were 429 patients in hospital on Friday night, including 19 in intensive care. Nicola Sturgeon reacted to the latest figure on Twitter, saying it was time to take "extra care" to keep the progress going.

Francis Albert Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 20 minutes ago, Ray Gin said: Aye but folk can be trusted to behave responsibly. If you look at the pictures most in the foreground seem to be complying with the new 1 metre distancing rule. It is impossible to say what is happening further back as a crowd from a distance always looks packed. Most reporting today says many pubs didn't open and those that did were pretty quiet. The Observer says none had to be closed by police. So the great majority did behave responsibly. Disappointing as that might be for some.

I just realised that Thatcher was the daughter of Alf Roberts who owned a grocer shop and was heavily into politics. Sounds familiar. 🧐 I also see she was one of the first members of the aptly named Vermin Club. Aye we need more like her, like her as in deid.
