Like others, I congratulate the health teams in their entirety for the tremendous work they have done over the past 18 months or so. They remain steadfast in their objectives regardless of what happens and that kind of consistency is greatly appreciated. I have a couple of questions. How many minutes do I have? I have some anyway. With regard to the various age cohorts, vaccination has obviously not yet started in some, while the vaccination of others began some time ago. Have any gaps become obvious in, for example, the cohort over 60 or the cohort over 70? Are there any patches that might be vulnerable in the event of an upsurge in the Delta variant?
