There's good business here.
Which, you know, you get that the companies have got to sell a bit of hope, but there doesn't seem to be the â
appreciation or intellectual honesty to say, yep, we've really got an issue here that we've really got to fix.

Drug development cycles are long.
Patient treatment cycles are long.
it'll take a while for this company to restore itself to its former glory.

No, there's a fundamentally decent business.
They are â this business in America where they turn â
They collect blood.
They turn it into plasma products for the treatment of kidney diseases and other rare diseases.
I've said that wrong.
