Now, the main thing is you're going back to the actual mask scenario that we used over the last couple of years with regard to COVID.

I mean, that's basically what we're trying to do and staying away from people with coughs and sneezes.

I mean, to be honest, that's common sense anyway, where possible.

And if someone's coughing and sneezing right beside you, you're always better to move away because there are loads of other respiratory diseases, too.

This is just one of those.

Well, that's the problem.

At the early stage, it is very nonspecific.

So it's cough, sneeze, fever.

You may get some stomach upset.

And then it can go on to two different versions, one which affects the heart and the actual lungs, which is the more serious type, and the other which is a hemorrhagic fever, which sounds as though it's more severe, but actually the mortality rate is less severe.

that's the one that affects Europe and Asia mainly.

Whereas the one in the Americas, and including North America there as well, by the way, that actually is the one that affects the heart and the lungs in individuals.

And that's where that can become very serious.

Yeah, no, that's perfectly honest.

And that's exactly the same.

If you remember back to the early days, 19, sorry, 2020 with COVID and all the people on the cruise liners that weren't allowed off the cruise liners.

That's the same situation that we have now with regard to this particular boat.

So it's a smaller boat, obviously, but nevertheless, that's a huge concern for people on the boat.

No, and then it'll spread much more easily abroad as well.

But it still is a rare disease and people shouldn't be worried, shouldn't be concerned, and they shouldn't be changing their holiday plans or anything along those sort of lines because it is a rare condition.
