MOST Scots are following the Scottish Government’s FACTS guidance on precautions to limit the spread of Covid-19, according to scientists, although women are better than men and young people at observing them. The findings came from a team at Aberdeen University who have been researching how well people in Scotland have been adopting the preventative behaviours. It is part of the nationwide Covid-19 Health and Adherence Research in Scotland (CHARIS) project. The results – presented at the UK Society for Behavioural Medicine conference – came after thousands of Scottish volunteers were interviewed from last June to establish if they were adhering to the guidance to maintain a tw-metre distance, wear face coverings and wash hands regularly.
