PHONE-IN: COVID
The UK health security agency says a new Covid variant - nicknamed Eris - is now the second most common across the country. Infection data from the self-reporting health study Zoe suggests Edinburgh's a hotspot with around 40,000 active cases. And an outbreak at a hospital in Stornoway has seen the return of visiting restrictions there.
