That the Parliament notes that 1 March 2021 marks exactly one year since Scotland's first confirmed case of COVID-19 following a test; understands that, tragically, since that day, almost 7,000 people who have tested positive have died; welcomes the call from Asthma UK and British Lung Foundation Scotland to hold a national two-minute silence to mark the forthcoming anniversary, and sends its condolences to the loved ones of those who have lost their lives because of the pandemic.
