From the transcript
So one of the questions that I started formulating as I've just been thinking about this is, so $480,000 is basically 20% of what was available. So we're actually decreasing things by 80% in that category. My question would be is, and I don't know if we can answer it, I know there's providers on, maybe they can, is Christina, do we know what, I can't remember what the average payout or operational grant that folks were getting? Because my question is, and let's say it was $2,000. Well, they're losing 80% of that.
