What I've realized is that until you have an emergency or cancer, you basically don't get seen by a doctor.

And I think that, James, a lot of your doctors in the UK have just moved to Australia where they get paid better and they get more vitamin Ds and sunshine.

But to your point, what's been interesting, a couple of threads that I want to pull on.

Number one, so in China, there is a culture, which I don't think is very familiar to a lot of Westerners.

It's called yuezi.

So yuezi means to do a 30 to 40 day confinement.

It's a postnatal confinement after childbirth.

where they effectively treat the pregnant woman like a princess in a spa.

All her meals are made for her.

She has to do particular exercises.

She's not allowed to leave the house, hence its confinement, because she could catch a cold or be exposed to bacteria.

So she stays inside a hospital or a spa clinic.

And she's given massages, the baby's taken care of, she's fed well.

There's a lot of, in Chinese we call it buyang, a lot of nutritious soups and food that are given to her, a set menu.

So she effectively gets to check into a clinic.

And I've got girlfriends who've been doing this.

They pay probably $1,000 to $2,000 USD.

There are some offerings of this in the U.S.

that I think 10 times that amount.

I mean, just factoring in labor costs alone.
