Hi, im a registered nurse at San Francisco general hospital, and my comment is a comment, not a question, and i would just like to say this is the worst possible time for you to be raising the rates and raising copays.

This is not a time to raise them. Thank you. Thank you very much. Moderator, can we have the next caller, please . You have one question remaining. Yes, my name is richard glassman, and how am i do not see on the agenda general comments . Its usually at the beginning of the meeting. When can people make general Public Comment . I dont see this on the agenda and i want to know why it was taken off or not put on. How are people supposed to speak to the commission on items not on the agenda but under their authority . And why was it left off . And when will i get a chance to talk about my issues . Mr. Rothman, are you still on the phone . Yes. We can i can discuss this with you further offline. If you have any comments to give during the president s report or any other item that are related to your concerns, please feel free to dial back in and make those comments under those items. Well, theyre not under any items. Its under general comments. This isnt under any item on the agenda. Why was it taken off . I dont want to speak offline. I want the commissioners to hear me. Theres no place on the agenda for them to hear me. Why did they take that off the agenda . Mr. Rothman, this is the executive director. We have been this is our First Virtual meeting, and we were trying to make the meeting concise so that we could get through the business at hand. I apologize if that puts you in an awkward position. You are welcome to make your comment at this time or later in the meeting. Well, ill make it this time because its not under the item. Ill be short. One was a smile. Next month delta dental is going to make a presentation, and i ask that they make a detailed presentation of the smile program because i sure dont understand it, so [indiscernible] will make a detailed presentation in whats covered under the maximum and whats not covered. I kept getting different stories. And as far as kaiser, ill wait until next month. The only thing i want to say is i think we should set up an Advisory Committee to deal with issues that ive gone through and some of the other people, and the people i talk to at kaiser feel that this would be a good idea, and i hope the staff and the commission would agree that we could set up an Advisory Board made up of kaiser members and act [indiscernible] so we could deal with some of the issues that crop up. Thank you for letting me speak. Madam secretary thank you very much. Moderator, can we have the next caller, please. You have two questions remaining. Hi. I dont have a question but i have a comment. Im a registered nurse. I just want to leave a comment about kaiser distributing [indiscernible] masks. Right now were finding this pandemic and we dont know what kind of modes of transition this virus is going through. Theres a lot of nurses dying, and we nurses in south San Francisco have the highest, you know, in the region of positives nurses who are positive for covid. And bringing to the cdc reprocessed masks are not [indiscernible] decontaminating the masks are not a sure way of protecting us from the virus, and even the sva is saying that
