So, uh, during this time time frame, we uh, uh, tested 657 uh, patients and of those, 360 were Aendale um, panel assigned patients. And so we have uh community health workers who we call cultural health navigators who speak the many uh languages of this population that we serve. Um and these studies uh basically show various uh uh types of interventions and types of trials that repeatedly de demonstrate the effectiveness of these interventions.
