          increasing and that scheduling of new or additional patient appointments is declining. Based on patient volumes, as well as current and future federal, state and local guidelines, certain clinics may operate on a reduced schedule or temporarily
          close. Additionally, the White House has just issued a set of proposed directives including that meetings of groups of persons of ten or more be suspended for 15 days. Accordingly, management of the company is hereby suspending earnings guidance
