Okay. My second question relates to the opening of schools and to children between the age of five and 12. This question is to Professor Butler. As we know, this disease has killed millions of people across the planet, and largely children of that age group have come through unscathed, in terms of death. It has obviously disrupted everybody's lives across the planet. Schools in this country have opened in the past two weeks. How satisfied is Professor Butler about the protection of unvaccinated children in that age group? Has she confidence in regard to the measures which the Government has taken thus far?
