And this one, as Dr Rest Cobb mentioned earlier, is very key for why you probably need to do it on the city in Oklahoma County, as we look at cases that what our response should be to take care of our public. So I think it’s important will just start looking at this pie chart, which is the subgroup analysis of 409 new cases and looking at the top. Intimate gatherings make up 7%. And if we had the definition or the intimate gatherings, I was trying to see that weddings, funerals, holiday and birthday celebrations in people’s homes. These air just small, kind of everyday events that people participate in. Next. If you’re going right on the pie chart, we see that restaurants make up 24% and on down the faith based activities is 13%. And we’ve had tracing evidence that largely those were related wires and church staff members. As much as anything else, Child care is new, came on the scene in the last couple of weeks that was actually added just yesterday afternoon. 12 foot makes up 12% of this. I charge work and business, and this is an office is as I understand, 12% bars, 9% are manufacturer warehouse construction, and this is kind of like assembly line work, in some cases, 8%. And then again, we’re looking at Jim and athletic events 8%. And then there’s a miscellaneous item of 7% and that’s from grocery stores, entertainment settings, casinos, convenience stores and even includes the salons and baseball’s, which early on people anticipated would be a big cause of problems. But I think because largely those folks are masking and they did early on, they haven’t made a large piece of his mind chart to date since we’ve been able to follow the tracing in this way. So you see, I think it’s important our staff wanted me to bear out that on the child care it is a majority of staff leading the members. Bars moved down in the percentage place, and this was two weeks following. You know, Mayor, the proclamation are reducing the bar capacity to 50% 2 weeks ago, so this is a really an early reflection, but could have bearing on that. And I think that’s, uh, something very important for us to realize you take a simple action and you see a reduction in that because it was much greater and then on the indoor sports activities. Really, I’m hearing a lot about in the tracing that this has been about basketball, spin classes, baseball, soccer and wrestling. And I appreciate the great work has been done on this particular graph from her Mila highly, who is one of our epidemiologists here. It has been working on this consistently with us, trying to reflect what we’re actually seeing when we begin case investigations and tracings. This is a reflection of that theme.
