About two dozen sailors on a U.S. Navy warship — or roughly 25% of the crew — have now tested positive for COVID-19:
The Navy said in a statement Friday that the ship’s crew is “100% immunized” and that all of those who tested positive for COVID-19 were being isolated on the ship away from other crew members. The Navy has declined to release the number of infected sailors.
The officials said Monday that the Navy believes the total vaccination of the crew is the key factor in controlling the outbreak. According to the Navy's statement, “a portion” of those infected are having mild symptoms, and that the specific variant is not yet known. COVID-19 cases have surged across the country as a result of the highly contageous omicron variant.
The first major military outbreak of the virus was early last year on a Navy warship, the USS Theodore Roosevelt, an aircraft carrier that was operating in the Pacific. The Roosevelt was sidelined in Guam for nearly two months, and more than 1,000 of the 4,800 crew members tested positive. One sailor died, and the entire crew went through weeks of quarantine in a rotation that kept enough sailors on the ship to keep it safe and running.
According to the latest data released by the Navy, more than 98% of all active-duty sailors have been fully vaccinated.
