My soin-in-law had the unfortunate experience of being a covid-free US Navy ship at sea. So what do they do with a covid-free DDG - they keep it out at sea for 197 consecutive days - no port calls. Morale was
horrible. Near the end there were a couple of suicide attempts, and within two weeks of returning to port three sailors were dead of drug overdose. I wish those 106 the best of luck!
(Ps: Although they were covid free, and although no one got on board or left the ship, they were required to wear masks 24/7 - in some of the worst conditions you can imagine...)
