Thank you.
And yeah, you touched on falls prevention there.
We recently had someone on talking about falls prevention.
I don't know if we need to cover this.
I was just going to ask, can you speak to the importance of the particular types of exercise?
But I think we've probably covered that.
That's great advice.
I was just thinking as you were talking, have you had anyone from the government reach out to you at all?
Because I know doctors, they're probably too scared to say to their older patients, go and do some weight training.
It would be great if this could get out more.
The government spends a lot of money on osteoporosis downstream when people already have it.
I know there was some recent funding announcement about some early prevention and detection, but because doctors are generally prescribing walking or something more soothing.
Anyway, I was just thinking off the top of my head, has anyone from the government approached you to sort of
No, but you've done the research, so you'd be a great starting point for them.
I'm so glad you say that stop fracture is doing that because that's what I had in mind, like more awareness for doctors.
And then as you say, you need someone in the government with foresight to look more at prevention because it costs so much money and falls how much money they cost the government as well.
what's, like you said, giving someone a Medicare rebate to participate in O'Neill is going to save the health system so much money downstream.
But someone's always, you say the conflict of interest, but it doesn't matter.
You've still got the research.
Someone is going to make money out of it somewhere.
