Just a moment. I am concerned about the current situation. I am working on the basis of the figures provided on the HSE's website for this current week. According to those figures, the turnaround time from symptoms to the tracing of 80% of contacts is seven days. Do the witnesses accept the figure of four days is the optimum turnaround time for a testing and tracing system to be effective? Could I have a "Yes" or a "No"?
