Reserved seats on @ScotRail for a holiday day trip from Edinburgh to Inverness but the 8:37 was a disappointment - only 2 cars, crowded, hot without air circulation. Alighted at Stirling to return to Edinburgh due to safety and comfort concerns - will visit Inverness another year

My prediction? We will be wearing surgical masks & goggles in the healthcare setting for the rest of our careers. And we’ll look back at the pre-COVID era similarly to the pre-HIV era when we didn’t wear gloves.
