Yes. I will go back to Mr. O’Grady from Dualchem. We face into the GAA championship, a huge social and cultural event for all things Irish. My question relates to putting in place what Mr. O’Grady spoke about. If it was done on the basis that the antigen test had to be monitored, rather than self-administered, could it still work or is it too cumbersome or costly a system for that to happen? How long would it take Mr. O’Grady’s company to get such a system up and running for, say, GAA championship matches? Dr. Mina might then comment on self-administered antigen tests versus professional monitoring of same.
