When would Mr. O'Brien expect to have data? I am not trying to be difficult but I know that when a pharmacist gives the flu vaccine, he or she enters the person's PPS number so that the doctor will know whether it has been given. It is there in a system. I can understand that we need a period of time to collect a data set, but once a period of time has elapsed I cannot see how it would be any more complicated than pressing a button or highlighting a column.
