I thank the witnesses for their work. I am sorry that time does not allow us to be more effusive than that but they can take it that we very much appreciate the work they are doing. I will not say that we have learned from mistakes, but a significant amount has been learned since before Christmas. I believe everyone understands the need for the cautious and gradual approach which, although tedious for the public, is working. We, as the body politic, get that and I believe the public also increasingly gets it. That is not to say that businesses and lives are not being devastated as we speak.

I have some quick-fire questions. When will pharmacists begin vaccinating?
