Former Navy Secretary Ray Mabus said the US fleet is facing an "acute problem" with the coronavirus pandemic and suggested it needed to make drastic measures.
"People do not have any way to social distance on any Navy ship, but particularly a carrier," Mabus said. "You've got almost 5,000 people here. And they literally are on top of each other."
"I think what they need to do is bring every ship in," Maybus said. "... Offload most of the crew ... leave a very skeletal force on board, sanitize the ship, quarantine people for two weeks, make sure nobody's got COVID."

I work with DOD and I don’t share your pessimism.
feed the hysteria keep the country closed. An obongo hack doing his part to make the crises as bad as possible. At the time saying the bumbling Trump should have known to do this.
Mabus is Obutthead toady.

Thanks.
Figured as much...and, you saved me from having to look it up :)
Never in the Navy. But I don’t think that is how it works.
This is exactly what China wants.
Shut up, Mabus.
Social distancing IS a stupid name...being on FR is social distancing. ...PHYSICAL distancing is what we are (supposed to be) doing
“A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.”
He’s sitting on it... so it would seem he is.

DUMB A$$!
All we have to do is give every sailor Hydroxychloroquine and Zinc. Every person in the military for that matter.
Remember, IDIOT, most people with COVID-19 have ZERO symptoms.
Almost, if not everyone, will get better. Most will still be able to do their jobs even while infected.
Talk about HERD IMMUNITY! We will have the most COVID-19 immune Navy in the world!
Totally series NO sarc tag required!
Explains everything, doesn't it?
Or, put every sailor on HCQ as a preventative, and keep working.
But that would require, uh, hmmm....balls?
“Put the military on prophylactic hydroxychloroquine...call it a trial study
Most of the British army was on “ tonic” ( quinine) for over a century”
Yup!!!!
What the hell are the sailors getting chiflu AT SEA????
And maybe we our sailors can surrender in shame to the Iran navy again while we are at it.
Next this ass hat will invite the ChiComs to come to America and put their tiny little boots on our necks. What a cheese-eating surrender monkey.
Who knew the Navy was non essential? /s
Not only were they on quinine the British Navy use the issue room to every sailor so that they could mix it with bad water and not get sick.
