I welcome Dr. Mina to our session. I thank him for taking the time to join us so early in the morning in Boston. He is well known in Ireland in that he has contributed very much to the antigen–PCR debate. Our committee is discussing this. I am aware that Dr. Mina has interacted with Professor Ferguson on his contribution here. What we really want is Dr. Mina's overview on the difference between antigen testing and PCR testing and what he regards to be the role of antigen testing in aviation and, more widely, in the fight against the Covid virus. We will give him five minutes to give us his overview. I thank him for joining us.
