Boris Johnson ending Covid isolation rules is a "distraction" from the PM's lockdown party scandal, said Professor Devi Sridhar who is a member of the Scottish Government Covid-19 Advisory Group.
Prof Sridhar, who is also the Chair of Global Public Health at the University of Edinburgh, said scrapping Covid isolation rules comes down to politics.
In an appearance on Sky News today, the professor said that it was too early to end self-isolation and that such a move is "not based on science".
