Nicola Sturgeon has set out her new strategic framework for dealing with coronavirus to MSPs - changing many of the rules Scotland has been following throughout the pandemic.
The First Minister said that the revised framework is "a desire for, and increasing confidence in our ability to achieve, a sustainable return to a normal way of life - even as we remain prepared for future threats that covid may present".
This new approach, she added, will "rely less on legally imposed measures to control the virus - and more on vaccines, treatments, and sensible adaptations and good public health behaviours".
