Mr. Jim Breslin:

We must be frank in acknowledging that the crisis is continuing and our conclusions must be tentative and preliminary. Because the virus is so new, there is much that we still do not know. A proven blueprint was not available at the outset on how this public health crisis would be managed. We are paying careful attention to international advice and experience. Decisions are being made in real time. The threat from the virus will be a reality for the foreseeable future and we must all protect the space for inquiry and learning.
