So I don't know. I focus on Parkinson's disease. So I look at the world from a narrow view. And I think there are other indoor air contaminants that could be. Some of those indoor cams can be coming from outside, you know, just from the ambient air when we're outside. And that has filled with particulate matter. And that particulate matter can be carrying toxic metals with it.
