Some on the island of Guam are nervous as hundreds of sailors from the coronavirus-stricken Theodore Roosevelt isolate in hotels.
The Navy says a sailor who was hospitalized in intensive care on Guam last week has died of coronavirus-related complications.
“Our people are getting slapped in the face,” said Hope Cristobal, who worries officials are making promises about safety they won’t keep. Each sailor is staying in a room stocked with two weeks’ worth of linens, towels and water, Rhodes said. There is no contact with hotel workers, and only military police and medical teams can visit.
