I wish to move to the deal with the private hospitals. It is reported in a newspaper today that the estimated monthly cost of the leasing of private hospitals will be €115 million. Is that accurate? Again, I seek a simple Yes or No answer, not a kicking to touch that something will be published at some time. Is it accurate that €115 million will be given per month to private hospitals? If it is accurate, is there a profit margin built into that? In other words, are some people going to get rich off of dealing with this massive health emergency?
