If I’m stationed in Poland, can the coronavirus prevent me from going outside the base?

Has the virus been reported there?

At least according to recent reports I've seen, we don't have it in Poland yet. With that said, cases pop up constantly. If you have it, count on being restricted to base/hospital. If the cases get bad enough off post, commander has discretion to restrict off base travel.

I’m currently here and I haven’t heard anything about the virus affecting us from going off post.

This is the perfect example of talking to your leadership on the ground. They will have the most relevant and up to date information. Nobody here can answer that question. Talk to your leadership!!

Have you been given any guidance about that from your unit? Are there cases of it in Poland? This seems like a question for your immediate supervisor or a section NCOIC or PSG.

Why in the hell aare you asking us? Your command/Post will decide and they will inform you of the policies and procedures.
