So the reason for the numbers that I had is simply for basis. So the reason for the numbers that I had is simply for uptake basis. So the reason for the numbers that I had is simply for uptake in that I had is simply for uptake in the that I had is simply for uptake in the way that I had is simply for uptake in the way that that I had is simply for uptake in the way that it that I had is simply for uptake in the way that it is that I had is simply for uptake in the way that it is being that I had is simply for uptake in the way that it is being rolled that I had is simply for uptake in the way that it is being rolled out. the way that it is being rolled out. But the way that it is being rolled out. But we the way that it is being rolled out. But we are the way that it is being rolled out. But we are looking the way that it is being rolled out. But we are looking at the way that it is being rolled out. But we are looking at using the way that it is being rolled out. But we are looking at using it the way that it is being rolled out. But we are looking at using it for But we are looking at using it for returnees But we are looking at using it for returnees as But we are looking at using it for returnees as well But we are looking at using it for returnees as well so But we are looking at using it for returnees as well so I But we are looking at using it for returnees as well so I expect But we are looking at using it for returnees as well so I expect that returnees as well so I expect that the returnees as well so I expect that the numbers returnees as well so I expect that the numbers will returnees as well so I expect that the numbers will only returnees as well so I expect that the numbers will only continue returnees as well so I expect that the numbers will only continue to the numbers will only continue to increase. the numbers will only continue to increase. And the numbers will only continue to increase. And as the numbers will only continue to increase. And as I the numbers will only continue to increase. And as I say, the numbers will only continue to increase. And as I say, we're increase. And as I say, we're contracting increase. And as I say, we're contracting separately increase. And as I say, we're contracting separately for increase. And as I say, we're contracting separately for border contracting separately for border testing contracting separately for border testing as contracting separately for border testing as well. contracting separately for border testing as well. So, contracting separately for border testing as well. So, is contracting separately for border testing as well. So, is attesting contracting separately for border testing as well.
