Watch: Ross County start socially-distanced training
Scotland's national clinical director is "more hopeful" but "still cautious" about the prospect of a 1 August return for the Scottish Premiership.
Clubs are allowed to train with restrictions in place as they work towards starting the new season.
Prof Jason Leitch believes a drop in the number of cases and the rate of infection make the scheduled start more likely.
"I am more hopeful this Saturday than I was last Saturday, but I'm still cautious," he told BBC Radio Scotland. "Gradually, things seem to be going in the right direction.
"Things are beginning to fall into place that would allow us to put another layer of pencil over that date, but it's still early days."
Researchers must ensure people of black, asian and minority ethnic groups are proportionately represented in Covid-19 studies, scientists from the UK and United States say.
It comes as the British Medical Association has asked the UK government why pages with recommendations to safeguard BAME communities were "omitted" from a key report.
A paper published in The Lancet by researchers from several universities - including Aberdeen - says previous studies show people in these groups are under-represented in many medical studies.
That is despite them often being more likely to be affected by the conditions being researched.

The trade association is calling for the Scottish government to announce a provisional reopening date.
The Scottish government said its total package for businesses during the "unprecedented economic crisis" was now in excess of £2.3bn.
Only essential shops, such as those selling essentials including food and medicine, can open in Scotland at present.

Image source, SNSUrgent financial support from the UK government is needed within days to prevent long-term damage to university research, according to Scotland's Higher Education Minister, Richard Lochhead.
He points out that the Scottish Funding Council’s recent analysis suggests the country’s universities will lose around £72m in academic year 2019-20 alone as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, with an operating deficit of between £384m and £651m in academic year 2020-21 expected.
Those reductions do not take account of the potential loss of EU funding following Brexit.
Mr Lochhead has been part of a UK taskforce with UK Science Minister Amanda Solloway and has written to her asking for a comprehensive package of funding for research to counter those twin threats.
“Scotland has already put together an emergency Covid-19 support package worth an additional £75m for our university research sector, but this direct Scottish government commitment - which has already been allocated - must be urgently complemented by a substantial UK element," he writes.

Competitive events have been suspended until 1 August because of the coronavirus pandemic.

"We have seen since Covid a huge number of people cycling for exercise," he told McLeod Media.
"Cycling is something I hope can help Scotland recover from an economy, health and well-being, active travel, inspiration and tourism perspective."

Coronavirus: Inside an ICU fighting Covid-19
Since the beginning of the pandemic the sight of medics in masks, gowns and visors has become common on our television.
While at the peak of the crisis there were 3,000 people on ventilators, there are still 500 patients fighting for their lives in ICUs up and down the country.
This means intensive care staff are still donning their protective equipment every day when they go to work to wrestle with the virus.
Many are not even returning to the comfort of their families after their shift ends for fear of infecting them too.

Suilven, in the west of Sutherland in the Highlands, has an elevation of 731 metres.
Mrs Payne has raised more than £390,000 in the last two months.
With only 30 flights to go before she completes her goal, Prince Charles, the Duke of Rothesay, has sent a letter of support congratulating Mrs Payne.
"My wife and I just wanted to add to what I suspect is a very large number of messages of support by saying how inspiring it has been to witness the huge success of your fundraising efforts," he says.

Competitive tennis should not return until next year, says Judy Murray.
A decision is expected on Monday regarding whether, and when, the US Open, scheduled to start in August, can be played.
Coach Murray, mother of Grand Slam title winners Jamie and Andy, thinks the event should be cancelled and play should resume in 2021.
"We should just park it and start again at the beginning of next year, almost like a clean sheet," Murray said.
"That would be fairer to everybody. It feels to me that, until there's a vaccine, I don't think you're going to get a full complement of players anywhere."
