Yes, I could see how this could grow and get quite wild. I thank Professor Butler for that.

On ventilation in schools, there has been a delay in providing ventilation equipment because of a fault in the units. Is there any concern that this will have a knock-on impact? The article I read suggested that the equipment will all be in by next week. Is there any concern around that ventilation equipment or are we just hoping that everything will work out?

There has been much talk about the ethics around second, third and booster doses of vaccines when many developing countries are still waiting desperately for vaccines. Professor Butler has said that we must make sure that booster shots are safe and actually needed. Has there been any conversation about booster shots for particular vaccine types? I have friends in Iceland, for example, who got the Janssen vaccine initially and who have already been given a booster vaccine. Is there any conversation around the different types of vaccine people received and the booster or is that just too complicated?
