Do roll call. [ roll call ] agenda number two, Public Comment on matters appearing or not appearing on the agenda. Thank you, Ethics Commissioners and staff of our city. I am a Public Services worker. I am a delegate for Government Employees. I am also the director of Public Relations for the california grand jury association, the San Francisco chapter. I have been coming to the Ethic Commission for the Government Employees in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019. The last time i was here was january of 2020.

In San Francisco, we do celebrate a new record low of new h. I. V. Infections, less than 200 last year. Thank you, dr. Brent colfax, for your leadership in the department of health.
