In recent weeks there has been a rise in Covid cases across the UK - including Scotland.
According to recent data the Office for National Statistics (ONS), around one in 12 people have Covid.
The figures comes after First Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced that face masks would be scrapped this month - a decision postponed for a few weeks due a spike in infections.

But now as well as masks being ditched, so too are lateral flow testing kits - and people aren't sure about what it means for them.
England ended free lateral flow testing for most of its population today (April 1) meaning only those aged over 75 and people over the age of 12 with weakened immune systems will be eligible for free testing kits.
However, people in England also do not need to self-isolate anymore - nor take a test if they feel they have symptoms.
This is different to the rules in Scotland at present - but it's all set to change because as of April 18, when masks are set to be ditched, LFTs will also be ditched.
So what does this mean and what can we expect from these changes?
Scotland's lateral flow testing rules explained
From April 18, Scots will no longer have access to free LFT kits as they have done in the past.
It will however remain free under certain circumstances until the end of April such as for health/care workers, patients, those visiting vulnerable individuals in care homes or hospitals and people who are asked to take a test.
Up until April 30, if you have symptoms you shoulder book a PCR home testing kit and sent it away.
Soon though Scots will implement rules like England have meaning from May 1 2022, symptomatic people will no longer need to take a test - LFT or PCR - and they won't have to fill out any contact tracing forms.
