Thank you, gentlemen.

You gave very interesting presentations. I appreciate the biosafety level 2 to level 4 perspective, and that the legislation is there to protect both Canadians and those working in the lab.

I have a number of questions. How does this legislation compare to WHO recommendations, and how does it compares to the U.S. and the U.K. in terms of the different classifications? Are we separating level 2 from level 3?
