Professor Nolan's job is to provide that data and that modelling. We know it is a virus and we know it is a virus that spreads. If it spreads more quickly, we may have more community transmission as a consequence of more people moving about. I am asking what is the number. There has to be a number when Professor Nolan is doing the modelling and when he is providing the Government with advice. All I am asking is if that magic number or key number for the reproduction rate is above 1?
