I think an elephant dance and that was the government of India. I mean imagine the family planning campaign done by Jason Dukunna and many other advertising greats unfolded over some 30 years and today you have a reversal in the birth rates and you know everything is good news. We're going to arrest our population. The whole industry had a big role to play. The government implemented it over decades. Here in a matter of weeks they managed to get their act together. It may not have been the most sexy campaign but telling people mask up sanitize and don't worry things will be okay. I really think the standard of the government is handling of the pandemic. So there you are the elephant danced.
