My final question, which I did not really know much about until I read a bit more about it, is on how breast cancer affects men. It is obviously a very small number of men. Of the 3,500 people diagnosed each year, what percentage of men are diagnosed with breast cancer? What is the mortality or recovery rate with regard to those men who get breast cancer?
