Adverbs of degree

I think our last projections in December are still very clearly plausible.

Adverbs of manner

Well, those numbers are clearly based on assumptions which we believe are still correct today.

Past perfect

In other words, we had anticipated when we forecasted those numbers that there would be a continued look down measures, confinement measures taken in the eurozone and this is what we are seeing clearly.

So the fact that whether you look at Germany and Belgium at Austria, at Spain and the Netherlands, France possibly uh that are deciding one after the other extended locked down measures, probably for some countries into February for some, possibly into march, our forecast is predicated on lock down measures until the end of the first quarter.

So what would be a concern would be if, after the end of March, uh, those member states need to continue having locked down measures and if, for instance, vaccination programs were slowed down, where inefficient, which is not something that we can, you know, we can predict at the moment there is clearly a ramp up off logistics.

So, yes, we've had some, uh, negative announcements in terms off, Lock down.

Vaccination, Uh, start has been laborious.

 And we have no reasons to believe that our forecast is wrong at this point in time.
