Sean Robertson said in an email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The crew was tested following the quarantine and one sailor tested positive, according to a Navy official who asked to remain anonymous because the official was not authorized to speak on the matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Robertson said Wednesday that there had been \u201cno new cases since they got underway.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dozen Chafee sailors tested positive for COVID-19 last month as the ship steamed from Hawaii to San Diego for
