Good morning,

Welcome to your Scotsman newsletter.

Nicola Sturgeon is set to give an update on the coronavirus pandemic later today. Should we be concerned?

The First Minister may also address the rise in Covid cases this month after 992 positive infections were recorded on Friday – the highest figure since February 17.
