Test, Trace, Isolate
Everybody to be tested, if positive then isolate them until tested clear. All those met by positive person traced and tested, isolated if testing positive.
If a person has recovered then issue them with ID that allows them to go back to work.
We do not have to wait for apps to be developed to achieve this.

Why the contribution is important
The economy is tanking, nobody knows who has had the virus and recovered, and could therefore go back to work, who has it and is asymptomatic and who is still in danger of catching it.

This is a very costly procedure, as no dip-stick solution (think pregnancy test) has yet been developed.
Testing when suspected symptoms show is much more effective on our already very strained fiscal and material resources.

Most of Scotland is in a good position, but it appears there are a few regions that are lagging in getting the virus R value such as Greater Glasgow & Clyde and Lanark.
TTI as talked about by the First Minister could now be carried out, if there were right resources in place, in the Borders, Dunfries and Galloway, Highlands, Shetlands, Western Isle, Orkneys, Fife, Forth Valley. No need to mass test all the people in these areas. Would hope this is already being carried out in these regions.
