I will keep mine very short, however, i do want to point out that weve been extremely lucky since the shelter in place order.

Ba do is on the reporting side, and were more than happy that bill and his team have adopted him and have assured us that they will be always available to help him be successful in his job. A second key hire that we have brought on board last month and a project that ive been working on for 15 years, and that is to get a Quality Assurance Operational Risk office started in the department, and i have been working with mr. Derwin brown for nearly two years, i think over two years, frankly. Tried to convince him that he needed to leave the l. A. County plan and come up and join us in San Franc

Thank you. Moderator, are there any additional callers . Operator you have zero questions remaining.
