"Figure 13: The weighted fortnightly estimate to 31 December 2020 (which underpins our modelled official estimates) shows the percentage testing positive in Scotland was 1.07%","" "Estimated percentage of the population in Scotland testing positive for the coronavirus (COVID-19) by non-overlapping 14-day periods between 27 September and 31 December 2020","" "","" "Notes","1. All results are provisional and subject to revision. 2. These statistics refer to infections reported in the community, by which we mean private households. These figures exclude infections reported in hospitals, care homes and/or other institutional settings. 3. Estimates for Scotland do not include data for Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles because of operational issues. We are working to resolve these issues as soon as possible. 4. Caution should be taken around using the 14-day estimate as averaging the percentage testing positive over the past 14-day period can mask changes in the percentage testing positive that have occurred over the most recent two weeks. 5. Due to additional public holidays official estimates for Scotland are available to 31 December 2020, therefore the weighted fortnightly estimate includes only 12 days (20 to 31 December 2020)."
