Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will share my time with Terence Young.
I'm a little bit confused here, because I don't think we have enough knowledge. I'm not a medical expert, and therefore in regard to all the information we've been given it would be nice to hear from the medical professionals and scientists about actually where they are currently.
I understand that we hear your side of the story and you are on the receiving side of the line. But there is the other side, and I don't know whether we should assume that there is a group of doctors who don't want to work in good faith or if there is something that has not been developed.
I just checked what is happening and recommended in Germany, for example. The Robert Koch Institute as a diagnosis recommends two stages. First, they do an ELISA test before they recommend to do the Western blot. Therefore it would be nice to hear from our scientists what is available, where they stand, and how they collaborate with scientists around the world, because this is probably not working in bad faith but we are probably not there yet where we can provide easy testing to the patients.
I understand your frustration, but the question I have is this: if you had a knowledge of how to prevent it, would it prevent your disease or your kids' disease?
