@BinitaKane Scottish kids weren’t back at school ‘normally’ until late April last year. And even then they wore masks in class in until April 2022. Let’s not forget all their activities and hobbies were also cancelled or disrupted. Stop minimising things because they didn’t affect you.

@sue_purkiss Happy Birthday

@GillianMSP You’ve written off the entire US as a place you wouldn’t feel safe walking about in?!

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@l_m_p1 @poloandsons @magnusllewellin No actually I wouldn’t. I would have respected her for following her own advice.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@l_m_p1 @poloandsons @magnusllewellin Oh right so Nicola must have believed him and that’s why she didn’t feel she needed to wear a mask?

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@bella_scozia @poloandsons @magnusllewellin Actually I would have respected her for following her own mask rules as advised by Scottish public health officials.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@poloandsons @magnusllewellin Local public health advice? Are you serious? Is England dealing with a different virus? There’s no rule against wearing a mask in England. Lots of people still do. Also she isn’t just ‘someone’. She’s the FM of Scotland.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@poloandsons @magnusllewellin Perhaps some people are angry because the FM herself wasn’t willing to lead by example and make that ‘small sacrifice’ herself earlier this week?

@stuartmolloy @cricketwyvern I think you need to keep them on whilst seated in church in Scotland?

@smiles333 @jaykinney2 @NicolaSturgeon The people involved in the ONS survey are a cross-section of society who attend scheduled appointments for regular testing. They volunteer to be part of the survey.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@TracyBlackCBI @CBI_Scotland @NicolaSturgeon Where’s her mask?

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@Irene60779832 @MerrynSW Has there been a survey done?

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@Rosaleen_mg @MerrynSW Source? A quick check on case rates for 0-19 year olds show them to be falling/steady for a good few weeks now.

@lovesatrier1 @MerrynSW Covid will be here forever.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@scottklogie1 @MerrynSW Do you have a source for your claim? Has there been a survey of Scottish schoolchildren’s views on masks that I’m not aware of?

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@anna_inScotland @ONS You have the patience of a saint!

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@NHS_Lothian Is she wearing a mask to try to conceal her identity? Very odd.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@anna_inScotland @UFTScotland @SBMS_scotland Enjoy! I’m so happy that my S6 won’t need to spend the last few weeks of her school life in a mask.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@JimDraper9 @ScotTories The ‘science’ (their own expert advisory group) recommended that the masks should be removed ‘as a priority’ last October.

[Eleanor @EleanorMacG]

@CatherineBolla8 @ScotTories You do know the same group of experts said the masks should have been removed last October but Scot Gov overruled them?
