Okay.

All of the floors are sealed seam flooring and so easily wipeable.

So it's kind of a really interesting blend between a hotel room and a hospital room.

Is there room service?

Yeah, there is.

So because they're not allowed to leave the room, our staff provides everything, including toiletries.

meal delivery, snack delivery, personal items.

We also do all of their laundry.

So we do that each evening.

And then I think one of the unique things about our facility is that we also have an autoclave on site.

So for some of our pathogens that produce category A hazardous substance waste, if people become sick,

you need to be able to inactivate that waste prior to shipping it out.

And so we have the ability to escalate to those full isolation procedures on this floor should somebody become ill prior to being able to move them over to the hospital side.

Yeah.

So when you have like Ebola virus disease is actually a great example or any of the viral hemorrhagic fevers because the virus can persist on surfaces for an extended period of time.

And it takes such a low amount of virus to infect someone.

So infectious dose is, you know, a big consideration.

That waste can't just be sent out to the normal waste streams.

And so it goes into the autoclave and we essentially use steam sterilization to denature the virus so that it is no longer viable.

And then it gets packaged up as a Category B regulated medical waste and sent for incineration.
