Medicaid, I believe PD's all now. Is that six for the Iredo call? Yeah, got this is um, medicate's on. Hey, we got one (name withheld) that's been hit in the face. He has, well, you know, his conscience alert, and another (name withheld) took some drugs, and he's feeling like he's about to fall out. A rest you want, where else you want? What else you want? Looks like we got two patients so far. We can probably clear everybody, but Us and six. Clean 11 got a patient right now. 26th command. Are we going to need multiple trucks or other patients from the same vehicle? Separate vehicles. A second truck that way, good one. Medic 29 is on the out. 29 for 26, we're not in pain yet. Come with, there's three patients from separate vehicles. We're about five minutes out. I'm running down 147 to get on 40 that way, so let me know what the best approach is going to be when we get down there. Sounds like it's the off ramp on the 15501 from 40. Yeah. Command, spot four. It's 16. 40 westbound is going to be backed up pretty bad because we had it shut down completely. If you can... Approach from 15501 we could stop traffic and have you come down the ramp the opposite direction we're right at the bottom of the ramp.
