In this video, Heather talks about the slight increase in the number of new Covid-19 cases over the last seven days. As yet, there is no huge increase in the number of hospital admissions at this stage. The situation is being monitored very closely.
The vaccination programme is going well. It is likely that the 50-59 year-old second vaccination will be brought forward to within eight weeks as opposed to 12 to have increased vaccination coverage across the community in light of the new Covid-19 variant.
Heather also speaks about the climate change conference which was arranged, and hosted online, by North Lanarkshire Council.
