Ha ha 77%. Ha ha ha ha ha. Okay. And also you used the word there “claim”. That does not mean the majority of your customers wear a mask which is what you report on Twitter. Please could you answer me: What was your sample size? What was the audience of this survey and how were they selected? And where does the survey take place?
