Paul Friedrichs, the Joint Staff surgeon and a medical doctor, who advised simple precautions like keeping distance between people, wiping down workspaces and covering mouths when coughing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At this point, there has only been a small number of confirmed cases among DoD personnel worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo one is seriously ill at this point and everyone has been diagnosed is being appropriately treated, getting the care that they need,\u201d Friedrichs said Monday in a Pentagon statement. \u201cSo we have implemented a number of measures in order to make sure that people are appropriately identified and treated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
