- Hi.

00:06.080 --> 00:07.240
I'm Colonel Terrence Adams

00:07.240 --> 00:09.050
and I wanted to take a few
minutes to let you know

00:09.050 --> 00:12.180
that your health and safety
is our number one concern

00:12.180 --> 00:15.490
as we deal with COVID-19.

00:15.490 --> 00:18.160
First, I want to let you
know the DOD's priorities.

00:18.160 --> 00:20.270
They are, first, to protect our people,

00:20.270 --> 00:22.700
to retain readiness,
and then additionally,

00:22.700 --> 00:25.550
to support any other government agencies.

00:25.550 --> 00:29.690
Earlier today, the
governor of South Carolina

00:29.690 --> 00:32.130
closed all public schools.

00:32.130 --> 00:36.430
In turn, Joint Base Charleston
will keep our CDC open

00:36.430 --> 00:40.800
in order to support your
families and the mission.

00:40.800 --> 00:44.880
Secondly, we're going to
have a virtual town hall

00:44.880 --> 00:48.360
on tomorrow, which is
Monday, the 16th of March

00:48.360 --> 00:50.570
to inform you and to take questions

00:50.570 --> 00:53.930
about what we are doing
around Joint Base Charleston.

00:53.930 --> 00:55.150
We ask that you would tune in

00:55.150 --> 00:59.860
to that Facebook Live
session tomorrow at 5:00 p.m.

00:59.860 --> 01:01.150
And finally, we want to make sure

01:01.150 --> 01:03.750
that you all touch base
with your chain of command.

01:03.750 --> 01:06.910
That is gonna be the best place
for you to get information.

01:06.910 --> 01:10.580
We also want you to tune
in to our Facebook page

01:10.580 --> 01:12.980
and also the base websites.

01:12.980 --> 01:15.160
These are gonna be the
places that you turn to

01:15.160 --> 01:18.090
for your most up-to-date information.

01:18.090 --> 01:21.700
Again, CDC will remain open to support you

01:21.700 --> 01:24.150
and your families and
we would like for you

01:24.150 --> 01:27.140
to tune in to our Facebook
Live session tomorrow

01:27.140 --> 01:28.430
at 5:00 p.m.

01:28.430 --> 01:29.263
Thank you.
