About 40 people infected even by French military aircraft carrier New coronavirus April 9 4:45
The French Ministry of Defense on Tuesday announced that approximately 40 crew members of a French carrier operating in the Atlantic had been infected with the new coronavirus and that they had been quarantined on board.
According to the French Ministry of Defense, about 40 crew members have complained of signs of being infected with the new coronavirus on the French carrier "Charles De Gaulle" sailing in the Atlantic Ocean. Suspected crew members have been quarantined on board and monitored, but the symptoms are currently not severe.
The Pentagon says a specialized medical team will be dispatched to examine the crew and take necessary measures, such as disinfection, to prevent the spread of the infection.
According to the Pentagon, the aircraft carrier departed from his home port Toulon in southern France in January, taking part in anti-terrorism operations in Syria and Iraq, and in exercises with the US military in the Atlantic.
Local media reported that military carriers have not stopped at the port since arriving at a military port west of France on the Atlantic Ocean on March 15, and how the crew became infected. We do not know at this time.
Outbreaks of the new coronavirus have also occurred in US Navy nuclear carriers.
