And we re finding that we ve now reached a critical mass where most of the people who are eligible and who wanted to get really actively engaged in the process, have come out and gotten it at the large clinics, and at the height, we could vaccinate with all of our volunteers, around 1,000 people a day, and now, we ve got six-hour clinic blocks, and 100 people coming in. So we re shifting to this model have more availability more days and more consistent
