A U.S. Navy warship has paused its deployment to South America due to a COVID-19 outbreak among its “100 percent immunized” crew, the Navy announced on Christmas Eve.
“USS Milwaukee (LCS 5), a Freedom variant littoral combat ship, remains in port as some Sailors test positive for COVID-19,” the U.S. 4th Fleet said in a statement.
“The crew is 100 percent immunized and all COVID-19 positive Sailors are isolated on board and away from other crew members. A portion of those infected have exhibited mild symptoms. The vaccine continues to demonstrate effectiveness against serious illness.”
The ship currently remains in port at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, located at the southeastern end of Cuba.
It had departed Dec. 14 from Mayport, Florida, and was heading into the U.S. 4th Fleet area of operations to support Joint Interagency Task Force South’s mission, which includes counter-illicit drug trafficking missions in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific.
The U.S. 4th Fleet’s statement did not quantify the number of those infected, nor how many among them are exhibiting mild symptoms.
The specific COVID-19 variant has yet to be determined. The ship is following Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for contact tracing and testing.
COVID-19 cases have recently increased drastically across the United States amid the spread of the contagious Omicron variant.
The ship is also “following an aggressive mitigation strategy” in accordance with Navy and CDC guidelines.
In early 2020, a separate Navy warship, the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt that was operating in the Pacific region, was sidelined for about 10 weeks in Guam owing to an outbreak of COVID-19. About 1,000 of the 4,800 sailors on the ship got infected, and a 41-year-old sailor died from COVID-19.
About 4,000 sailors were moved ashore for quarantine and treatment while about 800 remained aboard to protect and run the high-tech systems, including the nuclear reactors that run the vessel.
More than 98 percent of all active-duty sailors have been fully vaccinated, according to the latest data from the Navy.

The woke joke Red Navy.
Boy I bet they feel really smart about now…
smh…But it’s all the unvaxxed ?…geesh ?
So in a War, do they call “TIME OUT” to the enemy when someone sneezes? Or if one of them break a nail?
Sounds about like Robin Williams in the movie, “SURVIVORS”, when Jerry Reed was shooting at him. Williams yelled out, “Time out OK? I brought the wrong bullets”!!!!!! ………… If they can’t deploy because of the sniffles, we are in trouble……
The vaccines are bullshit. They don’t work and only decrease your immune system.

i smell a stinky

before and some today say the injection will protect from covid-19 that’s why the unvaxxed need to get the injection?!? ask brandon i mean biden but if the injected get covid19 they say well they have a milder form and if they died they are listed as not having the injection.
Does the shot do anything? Everytime that a booster is administered faucis phone goes Cha Ching.
I guess this is where the Pentagon gets a booster mandate…
Was this story actually about a second, Cuban missile crisis?
Where are you Darwin? Explain thy self!!
“You sunk my battleship!”
The crew wasn’t “vaccinated” as no vaccine exists, or is possible. Crew was 100% jab infected, so they infected each other. Command staff wasn’t smart enough to stock up on ivermectin, or hydroxychloroquine, before they left port! If they has issued quercetine, and zince to the crew daily, this would not have happened. If they had taken ivermectin, and hydroxychloroquine as a prophylactic, this would not have happened. If the crew had used chlorine dioxide treated water, and iodine supplements, this would not have happened. If the air filtration system on the ship was NBC proofed, this would have been minimized. If they had added hydrogen peroxide to the forced air ventilation system, this would not have happened.
I’ve been encouraging guys not to join the military for years, several followed my advice. Besides, who is saying to themselves they want to risk their lives and sacrifice for the government and politicians we have now. The most meaningful and useful and happy life is to live for yourself. I don’t have any desire to protect anyone except those in my family (one sister and her two children, a brother and parents), and some friends, and maybe a few others. I’ll be honest here, as a single man I have thoroughly used women and always had all relationships strictly on my terms over the last 20 years but I sure as hell am not going to risk my life to protect them, that’s for cuck losers and white knights. Same goes for getting covid vaccinations, I’m healthy and strong and trim and don’t need them and not going to take the vaccines for anyone.
