Scottish Greens co-leader Lorna Green has received a positive Covid test just a few short hours before COP 26 proceedings start.
Her positive test result means she will be forced to miss COP26 events when the UN climate summit starts tomorrow.
The MSP for the Lothian region has confirmed that she will be self-isolating in line with NHS Scotland guidelines.
Ms Slater, who is the Scottish Government’s minister for green skills, the circular economy and biodiversity, took to Twitter to say she was only experiencing “cold-like symptoms.”
I had a positive Covid-19 test result. I feel very relieved to be double vaccinated and have only cold-like symptoms. I will be self-isolating following NHS advice.
