Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether its assessment of the risk to children’s health from COVID-19 is being revised, and on what basis.
Answer
Preliminary data indicates that in the Delta wave we are seeing a cohort of younger adults in hospital with Covid.
We do not recommend travelling to another area of Scotland to take part in an activity that is not permitted in your local protection level.
The risk of COVID-19 to young children remains low.
