    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    Spent last 10 days touring about Scotland - didn’t see one person not wearing a mask inside - and if they did forget they were quickly told to get one on (no exceptions seem to be given or expected), track and trace at every pub/restaurant, hand gel in every place you go and expected to use it...
