A six-year-old from Kirkcaldy has grilled NHS Fife's Public Health director with questions that she and her friends and family had about coronavirus and the effect it has had on young people like her.
Described as a 'very inquisitive child', Jessica Gardiner was keen to put her journalistic skills to the test this week with a one-one online interview with Dona Milne, a leading figure in NHS Fife.
Questions the budding investigator asked Ms Milne included: "What is self-isolation? Is that like being grounded?", "Why can't I play with my friends in my house?" and "What can kids do to keep their grandparents safe?"
Stephanie Gardiner, Jessica's mum who helped to arrange the interview said: "Jessica is a very inquisitive child and likes to ask lots questions about restrictions and the virus in general. Jessica loved being able to ask Dona questions and was very excited about doing the interview.
«I would like to thank Dona for taking the time to answer Jessica's questions about coronavirus."
Ms Milne said: "It was great to sit down with Jessica for this interview and she made sure to ask me some tough questions.
"This is a particularly confusing and difficult time for children and young people, and we know many have questions about what virus is and how it behaves.
"Hopefully Jessica and I have helped to answer some of these questions not just for local children and young people, but for everyone in Fife, and we hope that they can help us by following the national guidance to help us prevent further spread of COVID-19."
