Nicola Sturgeon is set to update the Scottish Parliament on the latest situation regarding the covid pandemic across the country.
The First Minister will address MSPs at Holyrood as cases of the deadly virus surge following the relaxation of the lockdown restrictions.
It will be Sturgeon 's first statement to the parliament since Scotland left the levels system on August 9, however she has held a number of media briefings in that time.
