Can you bring that together quickly now, sir. I would say the key issue is for us to minimize, to the extent possible, nonessential travel, including locally and we dont have a campaign to do that right now. Becausbecause what happens is tt this is so massive, so massive, that a lot of the enforcement happens from the peer pressure and they see what other people are doing.
