Vaccines, Shamima Begum and Scotland

The vaccine rollout continues at pace. But are we getting the order right? Should police, teachers, another group move up the list? Or is age the best pathway?

The former First Minister, Alex Salmond, has accused the current First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon, of lying. Nicola Sturgeon says she鈥檚 done nothing wrong.

The vaccine rollout continues at pace. But are we getting the order right? Should police, teachers, another group move up the list? Or is age the best pathway?
Maybe you have had the vaccine? Are your plans/behaviour changing as a result? Will you carry on with masks? Social distancing? What have you noticed where you live?
