NHS Highland has thanked the public for adhering to lockdown guidelines but urge people not to be complacent.
The national guidance and recent lockdown measures have included limited contact and staying a minimum of six feet away from others in a bid to reduce the spread of Covid-19.
Dr Paul Davidson, NHS Highland’s deputy medical director for community services, said the response so far from the public to the national guidance has been “excellent”.
He added: “I am asking everyone to continue to follow this guidance.
“Physical distancing measures do work so it is important that we don’t become complacent. I understand that it can be challenging for people, especially those who are separated from family, but we all need to play our part in reducing the spread of this virus so I would encourage everyone to continue to stay at home and save lives.”
Dr Rebecca Helliwell, associate medical director for the Argyll and Bute Health and Social Care Partnership, said: “Physical distancing and staying at home really does help to reduce the spread of Covid-19 and I am very grateful that the vast majority of the public have complied with the national guidance.
“It is so important that you continue to do so as it will help protect your own health, the health of the people you live with and also your local community.
“I would also add that, even though the NHS is busy with Covid-19, we are here to help with other conditions and I would reiterate the Scottish Government advice that people should not ignore early warning signs of serious conditions and if they have new symptoms then they should get them checked out either by contacting their GP or attending their local Accident and Emergency department.
