I think your hospitals, your nursing homes, the county itself, the first responders we were on regular calls making sure that everybody in the county and all of the vulnerable people that woods was serving had what they needed had protective equipment had vaccines once those came along but that was you know more than a year into into every almost a year into the pandemic but also uh for funding because the government at the state and federal levels tried to immediately create a lot of relief funding for organizations like Woods and for hospitals, organizations that were serving people who were really at risk if they got COVID of being sick.
