COVID-19 pandemic in Scotland – A timeline of key dates

This Inquiry timeline is predominantly based on data provided by the Scottish Parliament and is intended to provide a background to the period the Inquiry is investigating – 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022. It does not represent the final opinion of the Inquiry, nor will the Inquiry’s investigations be determined by this data.

If you were affected by any of the points shown in the timeline below, the Inquiry wants to hear from you. Our public participation project, Let's Be Heard, is inviting people from across Scotland to share their experiences of the pandemic. Let's Be Heard aims to give a voice to as many people across Scotland as possible and is the main way in which people can contribute to the Inquiry.
