Depends which country you're talking about, most Scots will be vaccinated by winter so why would there be lockdowns here

Not if the EU has anything to do with it, the same EU that you can’t wait to rejoin

bozo the clown will sort out the vaccine issue, he sorted out brexit all on his own so he did

not sure what the EU has to do with all the vaccine doses being manufactured in the UK mind you

It has been announced tonight (Wednesday) that the EU and the U.K. Government have come to an agreement over the distribution of the vaccines. At least Boris had the gumption to stand up to the EU bully boys.
An independent Scotland which was back in the EU would be at the bottom of the heap when it came to the distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine by Brussels.
Incidentally over a month ago it was reported that glass bottles that the Astra Zeneca vaccine comes in are made in Germany.

Scotland is either allowed to join the EU after independence or it is not, you can't keep flipping position based on convenience. How are New Zealand getting on with their vaccination programme? 70,000 at a concert last week, they must have their whole population innoculated by now to have that happen. Or maybe their leaders weren't big fans of herd immunity like Johnson and NZ is covid free so vaccines aren't a big deal.

Thanks for the comment about NZ.The reason for the no covid population is because of the control on passengers coming into the country. It is having the same effect on tourism but that solving that problem is regarded as less important than keeping the country covid free. Home tourism can obviously work as a partial replacement and maybe that's the way ahead? Total control of air transport, current covid tests prior to getting on any plane, and off any plane with an app on your phone which must be kept on during your stay?

NZ have had a pretty much faultless pandemic but the covid-deniers completely ignore them because they restrict freeedummmmmbbb and the libertarian mindset doesn't like that.

Agreed. Less than 5m people, land mass 10% bigger than the space that 66m who live in the UK occupy. borders still locked and compulsary 2week quarantine in proscribed accommodation. Been that way since they saw what was happening in Italy in Feb/March 2020. going to have to stay like that for ever more? tourist industry going to have to depend on staycations, no new money coming in from that previously important wealth generating activity. As a country it is not reasonable to compare their experience with the options available to Scotland or the UK, IMO.

Yes, Sweden with 13.5k deaths compared to NZ with 26 deaths, Sweden won bigley
