Confirmed coronavirus cases in Fife reach 19

The latest figures from the Scottish Government show an increase of three confirmed cases since yesterday.

This increase comes as the number of people with Covid-19 in Scotland who have died rises to 14.

Across Scotland there are now 499 confirmed cases of the virus, with 9364 having been tested.

The updated daily figures come as First Minister Nicola Sturgeon stressed that following health advice was “not optional”.

And she has called on shops which do not provide essentials such as food or medicine to close.
