I thank the Chair and the witnesses this morning for their candid comments, which are welcome. Dr. Schaffer spoke about the new learnings in nursing homes and how the implementation of new infection protocols and the additional use of PPE were proving very successful.

Is that a strategy we can continue to use in the context of nursing homes? Would it give us almost 100% protection against community infection in nursing homes?
