Almost three months after rule was lifted in England, from Monday Scots will no longer have legal obligation to wear masks.
The lifting of the face masks rule had been delayed twice in Scotland amid record levels of Covid cases and high numbers of people in hospital with the virus.
In January it was slightly relaxed in Scotland for adults taking part in organised activities with children under five.Then at the beginning of April, people in Scotland no longer had to wear a face covering in places of worship. This Easter Sunday is expected to be the first in two years where large numbers will attend church without the rule in place.Canon Gerald Sharkey at St Andrew's Cathedral in Glasgow pictured in March
However, going forward, Mr Yousaf said he believed most Scots would continue to wear masks in high-risk settings to protect vulnerable people."But you have to remember it's been very clear we can't keep a legal restriction in place for a minute longer than it necessarily needs to, that we have to act proportionately when it comes to the law.
