📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "I want to reflect, as I always do when I get the numbers of people who have sadly died, that they are not just statistics - they represent individuals who were mothers and fathers, grandparents, sons, daughters, siblings, spouses and partners."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "They are all unique, valued human beings whose loss is a source of grief to all of us. So we mourn their loss and extend our deepest condolences to all those who are coming to terms with life without them."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "I also want to thank everyone who is working so hard in our health and care sector for the incredible work that you are doing.

All of us owe you an enormous debt of gratitude. We in the Scottish Government will do everything we can to support you."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "We know that third-sector organisations are playing a vital part in protecting people's welfare and wellbeing in this crisis, so we want to do everything we can to support them as they support people across the country."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "If third-sector organisations need funding to continue providing important services, or if they have good ideas for new services that would help people in these difficult times, I would encourage them to apply for funding via the Wellbeing Fund."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "Finally, I want to repeat the key public health messages: please stay at home, unless it's for an essential purpose such as buying groceries or exercising, and if you leave the house, stay 2 metres apart from other people."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "I know that these rules are difficult, especially over this past holiday weekend, and they will not get any easier as the days pass.

But they are vitally important and please know that they are making a difference. By staying at home, we can save lives."
