Coronavirus in Scotland: Eight new cases in Glasgow as 51 are recorded across Scotland

A total of 51 new coronavirus cases have been recorded in Scotland.

The figure includes eight in Greater Glasgow, eight in Lanarkshire and 25 in Grampian.

The number of people in hospital has fallen by nine to 244.

No deaths of anyone who has tested positive for coronavirus have been registered.

Nicola Sturgeon previously announced that there is currently three coronavirus clusters being investigated.

The First Minister said today that prevalence of the virus in Scotland 'remains low'.

She added: "These figures also tell us that the virus is most definitely still out there - so please be ultra-careful."

As previously reported by Glasgow Live , Ca Va Brasserie in Giffnock has been forced to closed after a positive case was linked to the business.

Staff members identified as close contacts have been instructed to self-isolate for 14 days.

Anyone who visited the restaurant earlier this week is asked to book a test or self-isolate if they are experiencing symptoms.

Another cluster is also being looked at in north Glasgow which has been linked to pupils of Bannerman High School.

Nicola Sturgeon said it could potentially have an impact on the Lanarkshire figures.
