Stop international travel
Stop all international travel for an extended period (6months to 1 year) have a short full lockdown (3weeks) then reopen with as few restrictions as possible, except the international travel. Give a short window before implementing to allow those overseas to get home.
Why the contribution is important
International travel brings new strains of the virus and increases spread. Once we have a short full lockdown there would be reduced number of infected people and less community transmitting allowing a more normal lifestyle to resume.

Many professions (e.g. performing artists) also rely on the ability to travel for engagements. Another group of people you are completely disregarding.
Scotland also prides itself on being friendly and welcoming to immigrants. This means no immigrants could come for an extended period of time; the immigrants already living here would have to go for months or years to see their families. These visits can be an important source of mental health for those struggling with integration and culture shock here.
And above all: no more lockdowns; they are a violation of human rights.
