Schools in Scotland will also now remain closed to most pupils until February at the earliest to help contain the spread of coronavirus.<\/p>\n

Under the new rules, people are being told to stay at home, with exceptions for exercise, essential journeys and work purposes if you cannot work from home.<\/p>\n

Outdoor gatherings are to be cut back, with people only allowed to meet one person from one other household.<\/p>\n

Everyone who can work from home will be required to, and people in the “shielding” category are advised not to go in to work at all.<\/p>\n

Places of worship are to be closed, group exercise banned, and schools will largely operate via online and remote learning.<\/p>\n

These rules will apply across the Scottish mainland until at least the end of January, and will be kept under review.<\/p>\n
