Yes. I thank Professor Nolan and Dr. De Gascun for their presentations this morning and for the work they have done. I join them in thanking all the people who have worked on the front line and behind the scenes to ensure we have dealt with this in a proactive way in trying to reduce the number of deaths.

Yesterday, New Zealand announced changes. The authorities there were highly successful in locking down at an early stage. They now have no cases. What time period will we have to travel before we are in a situation where we will have no cases? Are we talking about months or weeks? Is it too early yet to speculate on that?
