Our phase II phase III clinical trial to evaluate <unk> as a treatment for COVID-19 is continuing our planned interim analysis is anticipated to occur in late May early June.
Lee confirming this statistical programs and data sets.
This trial is a double blind, which means only the data safety monitoring board or <unk> B notes with treatment of subjects getting during the trial.
As the trials interim analysis, the SMB carefully reviewed this data and can stop or continue a trial in Oakland make a recommendation to modify the trial or even request additional meetings with additional clarification is required.
The trial.
It's designed to have adequate statistical power when it reaches 248 evaluable subjects.
If the study continues we don't anticipate releasing any data, resulting from the interim analysis in order to maintain the blinding of the integrity of the data if it's done in other clinical trials.
The time to completion of the trial depends among other factors on bulk cobain infection rates, which are increasing enrollment in the <unk> recommendations. If the trial is successful. We will also submit a clinical study report and a request a meeting with the FDA as soon as possible.
Finally, we are looking at other potential clinical uses of temple continue to see government non dilutive funding and have recently applied for government grants at this time I'd like to turn it over to David Margulies.

Like to provide a quick update on how the Zim high commercial launch is proceeding.
As with any launch there's a ton of work going on behind the scenes that precedes any significant uptick in sales and that includes establishing brand awareness market access contracting etc. Zim high has been undergoing formulary review by commercial federal and state Formularies and it has already been added to many plans as either.
Nonrestricted.
Or as a preferred brand a few of those plans include the veterinarian the veterans administration.
Many of state medical Medicaid plans.
Including several of the largest.
Blue Cross Blue Shield plans in Massachusetts, Michigan, and Tennessee, Hi.
Hi, Mark Blue Shield plans in Delaware, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York, and West, Virginia, and all of Humira as top commercial formularies.
Zimbabwe is available for more than 83% of physicians using electronic health Records and U S will merge is pushing to grow that number.
After loading the wholesaler distribution channel at the end of March U S. Well matched began direct promotion to health care practitioners with a team of 20 plus regional account managers. Although we are still just weeks into this launch feedback from the commercial team has been quite favorable for the product the science and intuitive.
Nature of the device and the overall value proposition amongst stakeholders in both the retail and non retail market sectors.
In summary, although early we are very pleased with the activity to date and the trajectory for the product both Adam and U S will merge remained bullish on zim highest long term value in the market and with that I'll turn it over to Dennis.
