Well, at the moment, there's no strike notice.
0:54:45
When the strike notice that we appreciate, doctor's counsel withdrew, included, Jacoby, NCB, Queens, Hospital, as the facilities, and South Brooklyn Health.
0:55:02
So those were the the 4 facilities that were affected.
0:55:06
Doctor's counsel would have the right to put in a strike notice, about any of the facilities that it it has, assuming it has the appropriate votes.
0:55:15
So it doesn't they they are not limited in a future to to those facilities, but those were the ones that they put in the strike notice previously.

So therefore it's it become a personal too.
0:55:35
So I have to make sure that we can work something out.
0:55:39
The doctors belong in the hospital, not outside the hospital.

Right?
