I understand that. I have one last question as I am conscious of time. All the advice I have read indicates that 72 hours should be the time for testing and contact tracing. How close to that are we? Is Dr. Holohan confident that as well as the capacity to swab, there is capacity to contact trace and follow up, specifically in the context of workers returning to work this week?
