Before Senator Murphy comes in, I have a short question to Dr. Henry to follow on from Deputy Higgins's comments. What I am hearing is that if too many people are asking if something could be sepsis, they could also be asking for antibiotics in a case where it would not be appropriate and then we could have a situation where those antibiotics would not be effective on the people who would need them because antibiotics become less effective if they are used too often and we could end up defeating ourselves by creating an expectation. Is that what the doctors are saying?
