Nearly 3,000 sailors aboard a U.S. aircraft carrier where the CCP virus has spread will be taken off the ship by April 3, Navy officials said as they struggle to quarantine crew members in the face of an outbreak.
So far, fewer than 100 of the nearly 5,000 sailors assigned to the USS Theodore Roosevelt, now docked in Guam, have tested positive for the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, but the Navy is moving sailors into various facilities and probably will begin using hotel rooms in the coming days. Navy leaders are talking with government officials in the U.S. territory to identify rooms for the crew members.
