Production things like that so theres theres a variety of different factors that could come together precisely which weighs on how much particularly with a novel virus remains to be seen but we do know that we do see the seasonality with respiratory illnesses and i have been concerned about this since the beginning of the pandemic that although we were seeing this wave in early spring very late winter that the fall and the winter of 2020 was very unlikely to be another wave in a tough season and unfortunately signs are pointing back way with this latest data the u.
