Heinz, I wasn't suggesting you were blaming youth per se it's just that I remember all too well those headstrong days of youth which maybe were not the same for everyone of course.

I wasn't attempting to apportion blame but I have an interest in tracing these diseases as I was very involved in the Foot and Mouth epidemic in the UK and fully understand the need of forward and backward tracing. So I shall be very interested in the final analysis of these outbreaks in the wash up meetings which thank God will not be too far away and at least in terms of months and not years.

The pooling of the knowledge during these times is vital but there is still far too much nationalism around for my liking which will of course prevent this conduit.
