| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Industry Focus, the podcast that dives into a different sector of the stock market every day. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm your health care show host, Christine Harjus. |
| 0:09.0 | This episode was pre-recorded in early September and is scheduled for release on October 4th. |
| 0:14.8 | Regular listeners might remember that I missed the last two shows because I was on vacation |
