Not sure why this is a story. It follows that Covid is spread as an aerosol so the tight confines of any Navy ship has to be a nightmare. There's just no way to mitigate the distance problem, hopefully when there a vaccine the military stands at the top of the list, then health care workers. Let Congress wait in line, but I’d guess they get first dibs, they’ll vote for that.
