Eliminating Covid-19 in Scotland would be near impossible, a health expert has said.
Dr Christine Tait-Burkard said the UK is in a very different position to New Zealand and Australia where such strategies are “quite feasible”, because you can only enter those countries by lengthy air or sea travel.
She said we will have to learn to live with the virus because the fact that it is so widespread across the globe means it is here to stay.
