How to extract all timesteps except the specified timesteps from a netcdf file using cdo

Question

We usually use 'cdo seltimestep' to select the days we want to extract from a netcdf file into an output file that includes only the days we specified.

cdo seltimestep,6,10,11 2000-03.nc 03-days.nc

but now we want to do the opposite, we want to select all the days except the ones specified. Is there a way to do that in cdo?
