WASHINGTON—A sailor from the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt was admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) in Guam after testing positive for the CCP virus last month, the U.S. Navy said April 9, as the number of virus cases on the ship jumped to more than 400.

In a statement, the Navy said the sailor was in a 14-day isolation period when admitted to the U.S. Naval Hospital Guam. A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the sailor was found unresponsive and received cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The sailor is in critical condition.
