  • Domestic travel for military and civilian members in the Department of Defense will be suspended from March 16 to May 11, according to a DOD memorandum.
  • The measure is a result of the growing coronavirus outbreak.
  • The suspension is meant to slow the spread of the virus and protect personnel.

The US Department of Defense plans to stop all domestic travel for military members until May 11, as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
The US has reported more than 2,200 COVID-19 cases and 50 deaths.
A memorandum was issued on Friday, and the suspension will begin on Monday. The measure is meant to help limit the spread of the virus and protect personnel.
"The continuing spread of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) necessitates immediate implementation of travel restrictions for domestic Department of Defense (DoD) travel," the memorandum read.
The memo applies to "DoD military and civilian personnel and their families assigned to DoD installations, facilities, and surrounding areas in the United States and its territories," and also impacts "DoD civilian personnel and DoD family members, whose transportation is government-funded," the memo states.
There are a few exemptions including those traveling to receive or give medical care. According to Stars and Stripes exemptions for mission-essential travel or human resources among other things will be approved and a case-by-case basis.
According to the Associated Press, "unofficial visits" to the Pentagon have also been suspended.

Weeks after putting a hold on permanent change-of-station moves and non-essential travel both abroad and in the United States for the next two to three months, the Pentagon has issued a stop-movement order that will affect all personnel and Defense Department civilians.

The order affects travel for exercises, as well as deployments from combat operations in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, in an attempt to stop the spread of coronavirus, the Pentagon announced Wednesday

“Approximately 90,000 service members slated to deploy or redeploy over the next 60 days will likely be impacted by this stop movement order,” the release said.

Exceptions include:

  • Travel for military medical patients or providers.
  • Movements of Navy ships, as long as they observe 14-day quarantine periods.
  • Those who are already in the process of traveling.
  • Those who are away on temporary duty.

A combatant commander, military service secretary or the chairman of the joint chiefs, Army Gen. Mark Milley can also grant exceptions on a case-by-case basis, if the travel is mission essential, a humanitarian issue or due to another extreme hardship.

" Currently, this order is not expected to impact the continued drawdown of U.S. forces from Afghanistan, which is scheduled to be complete within 135 days following the signed agreement," the release said.

Pentagon halts domestic travel for military due to coronavirus

(CNN)The Pentagon announced Friday that members of the armed services, Defense Department civilian employees and their family members who are living on or serving at military properties can no longer travel domestically starting Monday, to curtail the spread of the coronavirus.
"The continuing spread of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) necessitates immediate implementation of travel restrictions for domestic Department of Defense (DoD) travel," according to a Defense Department memo signed by Deputy Defense Secretary David Norquist.
"These restrictions are necessary to preserve force readiness, limit the continuing spread of the virus, and preserve the health and welfare of Service members, DoD civilian employees, their families, and the local communities in which we live," the memo continues.
The news comes after President Donald Trump said during a televised address Wednesday that travel from Europe to the US would be suspended due to the worsening outbreak, later clarifying that the restriction would not apply to US citizens. The military has felt the effects of the pandemic, as some branches have begun screening new recruits for the virus and US involvement in certain military exercises has been altered in response to the outbreak.
The travel restriction is slated to last until May 11. Service members may take only local leave during that time, according to the memo.
The department said in a statement Friday that the travel restriction "will also pause civilian hiring at DoD installations and components for persons who do not reside within the hiring entity's local commuting area."
Some travel exceptions will be granted "on a case by case basis," and travel for medical services will be allowed, according to the memo. It notes that "our understanding of COVID-19 is rapidly evolving, and this guidance will be continuously evaluated as conditions warrant."
The department also announced new rules starting Monday for those who can enter the Pentagon building itself. According to a second memo from the department, all unofficial and international visitors will be "restricted" from the Pentagon grounds.
No military or government employees or contractors will be allowed to enter the Pentagon grounds "if they have traveled within the previous 14 days" from countries for which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued the highest or second highest travel warnings, per the memo.
Additionally, public tours of the Pentagon are canceled "until further notice," the memo states -- echoing the decision earlier this week to halt tours of Capitol Hill for the coming weeks, as sources have told CNN.
"All large gatherings, such as retirement and promotion ceremonies, shall cease," the department said in a corresponding statement. "All Pentagon Tours have been suspended since March 12, 2020."
This story has been updated with additional information about restrictions to the Pentagon itself.

Defense Secretary Mark Esper said the order applies to all service members, Defense Department civilian personnel and their families. However, there will be some exceptions, including the partial drawdown of American forces already underway in Afghanistan, as outlined in a deal signed by the U.S. and the Taliban last month.
"The purpose is to make sure that we're not bringing the virus back home, infecting others, that we're not spreading it around the military," Esper said of the move, first reported by Reuters on Wednesday.

In a statement, the Pentagon said the stop-movement order impacts "exercises, deployments, redeployments and other global force management activities," affecting approximately 90,000 service members slated to deploy or redeploy over the next 60 days. Exceptions include travel for medical treatment and scheduled deployments of U.S. Navy vessels.
DOD also on Wednesday raised its Health Protection Condition (HPCON) level globally to "Charlie" -- the second highest level which indicates sustained community transmission.
Only essential personnel will be allowed onto military bases worldwide and the installations will limit entry points. Personnel on the bases will also be required to practice social distancing, officials said.

These moves are just some of the ways the Pentagon has steadily increased restrictions on its personnel and implemented measures aimed at mitigating the spread of the deadly virus over the last several weeks.
As of Wednesday morning, the Pentagon confirmed that 227 service members had tested positive for COVID-19 -- up from 174 confirmed cases the previous day.
Those individuals now include three Navy sailors aboard a U.S. aircraft carrier, an Army recruit training at Fort Jackson in South Carolina, a Marine stationed at the Pentagon and more than two dozen members of the National Guard.

And while the department has suspended several overseas military exercises with partner nations and training efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan, it has allowed training stateside to continue largely unchanged.
Asked in a town hall event on Tuesday why units were still congregating in formations, Esper said the department has to maintain readiness, including physical fitness.

"You can't get social distancing in a submarine or even in a tank, right? I've been in both," he said. "But you take prudent measures as best you can, given the situation you're in, given your mission and whatnot."

"There will be an impact to readiness, but I think it will be on the lower end as opposed to significant," he said.
At the same time the department is working to protect the force, it's also providing personnel and resources to state governments whose health care systems are expected to be overrun with patients suffering from the virus.
What to know about coronavirus:
On Friday, the Navy hospital ship USNS Mercy is set to arrive in Los Angeles. And three Army field hospitals are being deployed this week to New York and Washington.
There are also more than 10,700 National Guard personnel currently responding across 50 states, three territories and the District of Columbia.

Pentagon Exercises, Deployments Suspended Following 60-day Stop Movement Order

US defence secretary Mark Esper with troops in Saudi Arabia
US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper enacted a 60-day stop movement order for all DoD uniformed and civilian personnel and their sponsored family members overseas.
This stop movement order will impact exercises, deployments, redeployments and other global force management activities. Approximately 90,000 Service Members slated to deploy or redeploy over the next 60 days will likely be impacted by this stop movement order.
“This measure is taken to aid in further prevention of the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), to protect U.S. personnel and preserve the operational readiness of our global force,” a Pentagon release said Tuesday.
The order builds upon previously enacted movement restrictions governing foreign travel, permanent change of station moves, temporary duty and personal leave.
Embedded within the order are mechanisms by which exceptions can be granted. Authorized exceptions to the order include:
Travel by patients and medical providers for the purposes of medical treatment for DoD personnel and their families.
Scheduled deployments / redeployments of U.S. navy vessels and embarked units, provided they are in transit for 14 days and have met the restriction of movement (ROM) requirements associated with current force health protection guidance.
Individuals who have already initiated travel. Individuals whose TDY ends while this order is in effect are authorized to return to their home station.
Currently, this order is not expected to impact the continued drawdown of U.S. forces from Afghanistan, which is scheduled to be complete within 135 days following the signed agreement.
Meanwhile, a US Marine stationed at the Pentagon was tested positive for Coronavirus Tuesday and has been isolated, a release said.

The US’ Northern Command has sent teams of essential staff deep underground to wait out the Covid-19 pandemic. On the surface, more than a million grunts won’t be quite as cocooned.
Air Force General Terrence O’Shaughnessy heads up the US’ Northern Command, as well as the North American Aerospace Defense Command – a joint US/Canadian operation that monitors the skies over North America for missile and airborne threats. Earlier this week, O’Shaughnessy told reporters via Facebook that some of his watch teams would be moved from their usual command center at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado to a number of hardened underground bunkers.
One of these facilities is the Cheyenne Mountain bunker complex, a warren of tunnels buried under 2,000 feet (610m) of granite, and sealed behind blast doors designed to withstand a 30 megaton nuclear explosion.

“Our dedicated professionals of the NORAD and NORTHCOM command and control watch have left their homes, said goodbye to their families, and are isolated from everyone to ensure they can stand the watch each and every day to defend our homeland,” O’Shaughnessy said. He also said that personnel sent underground will share the bunker with other members of the military, but he is “not at liberty to discuss who’s moving in there.”
Another team has been sent to an undisclosed location, O’Shaughnessy added.

Installations like Cheyenne Mountain are integral to the US government’s plan to survive a doomsday scenario. In the event of an existential threat to the US, a nuclear attack for instance, the president and his officials, as well as a contingent of political, military and civilian leaders would be immediately evacuated to four secure facilities to run the country from deep underground. These facilities are Cheyenne Mountain, the Presidential Emergency Operations Center under the White House, Raven Rock Mountain Complex in Pennsylvania, and Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center in Pennsylvania.
While the ongoing Covid-19 crisis has not triggered a mass exodus from Washington, it has prompted military leaders to take steps to ensure they remain combat ready. After admitting that the US military’s readiness could be affected by the pandemic, Defense Secretary Mark Esper stated on Thursday that the Pentagon would stop publishing precise details of Covid-19 cases within its ranks, to avoid revealing weaknesses to America’s adversaries.
As some of O’Shaughnessy’s forces head for the hills to wait out the pandemic in hermetic isolation, millions more on the surface will not have the same luxury. Army engineers have already been deployed to New York to scout locations for field hospitals, as the Empire State accounts for more than a third of the country’s 112,000 cases of the illness.
Also on rt.com Trump greenlights call-up of one MILLION reservists to battle Covid-19
With the crisis deepening, the US military appears to be adopting an ‘all hands on deck’ approach, both on the ground and under. Though the US military is forbidden from carrying out law enforcement duties on American soil, President Trump signed an executive order on Friday authorizing the call-up of up to a million reserve and retired Army, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard personnel.
These reservists could be called upon to assist civilian authorities in responding to the pandemic, as the nearly 10,000 National Guard troops already deployed have been doing. On Saturday, Esper announced a modified law that would provide federal funding for states looking to deploy more of these troops.
On top of this, two hospital ships have been sent to assist with treating patients in New York and Los Angeles.

新冠肺炎全球各國蔓延,就連距離「病毒起源地」中國大陸遙遠的北歐地區,也無法在這場病毒戰中全身而退。近日冰島當地的基因研究機構,針對當地所有新冠肺炎確診病患進行研究,結果竟找出40種突變病毒,甚至還有一名患者體內,發現兩種新冠肺炎病毒,可能是全球首例「雙重感染者」。
綜合外媒報導,冰島deCODE基因公司,日前針對該國確診新冠肺炎病患進行研究,發現其中一名患體內,竟驗出2種新冠肺炎病毒,其中一種病毒,是已經出現變異的新冠病毒,且比原先的病毒更具有傳染性、致命力。而該病患的雙重感染,很可能是世界首例。
冰島deCODE基因公司執行長斯特芬森(KáriStefánsson)表示,冰島確診人數相當高,但多是無症狀患者居多,如此的傳染風險會更高,希望藉由這樣的研究,確定新冠病毒到底是如何進入冰島,藉以找出防疫的根本之道。

New crown pneumonia has spread across the world, and even the northern European regions far from the "origin of the virus" in mainland China cannot retreat from this virus war. Recently, the local genetic research institute in Iceland conducted research on all patients diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia in the locality. As a result, 40 mutant viruses were found, and even one patient found two new crown pneumonia viruses, which may be the world's first "double infection." By".

According to a comprehensive foreign media report, the deCODE gene company in Iceland has recently conducted a study on patients diagnosed with new crown pneumonia in the country and found that one of them had actually detected two new crown pneumonia viruses, one of which was a new crown virus that had already mutated. And more infectious and lethal than the original virus. The dual infection of this patient is likely to be the first case in the world.

Kári Stefánsson, chief executive officer of deCODE gene company in Iceland, said that the number of confirmed diagnoses in Iceland is quite high, but most of them are asymptomatic patients, and the risk of such infection will be higher. Hope to use such research to determine how the new crown virus Enter Iceland to discover the fundamentals of epidemic prevention.
