Actually, Walt, I wonder if that's why they are far enough ahead in filming that Mariska can adequately recover without missing an ep. I'm certain they can also tweak a couple scripts to give her less physical stuff to do until she's well.

My hope is that she puts her health first and takes time to heal.

I heard about what happened with Mariska earlier:

Hopefully, she will be all right and will be back to normal soon. I
wish it were the reason I thought it was originally, however, and that
would have been they're having to speed up filming because of a
possible SAG Strike in the near future.
