CY2020	us-gaap	Use Of Estimates UseOfEstimates	Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States ("U.S") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and, accordingly, ultimate results could differ from those estimates. In particular, the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic had a material adverse impact on our results for the year ended December 31, 2020, and we expect it to continue to have a material adverse impact on our results for an indeterminate length of time. Management is making estimates and judgments in light of these circumstances, and this period, as well as upcoming periods, are unlikely to be comparable to past performance or indicative of future performance.
