00:00.309 --> 00:03.059
(dramatic music)

00:05.380 --> 00:08.920
- Good afternoon, this is
Brigadier General Dave Trybula

00:08.920 --> 00:11.960
coming to you headquarters,
White Sands Missile Range

00:11.960 --> 00:16.960
on Wednesday, 17 June, 2020
with our COVID-19 updates.

00:17.830 --> 00:19.290
To the numbers.

00:19.290 --> 00:24.290
The state of New Mexico is
reporting 10,065 positive cases,

00:25.610 --> 00:30.610
including 1,752 in the counties
surrounding Albuquerque,

00:32.350 --> 00:37.350

00:56.940 --> 00:59.330
We continue to evaluate conditions

00:59.330 --> 01:02.300

we will adjust things.

01:02.300 --> 01:06.100
I do want to do a special
shout out to our newcomers

01:06.100 --> 01:09.310
who went through Newcomer's
Orientation, in person, today.

01:09.310 --> 01:14.310
Practicing appropriate
precautions, with social distancing

01:14.390 --> 01:18.320
and masks and still getting an orientation

01:18.320 --> 01:20.410
to White Sands Missile Range,

01:20.410 --> 01:24.330
so they are better able to
interact and do their jobs.

01:24.330 --> 01:29.230
So what I would ask is, for
your continued vigilance

01:29.230 --> 01:31.270
being our first line of defense,

01:31.270 --> 01:35.360
practicing proper hygiene,
social distancing,

01:35.360 --> 01:39.110
wearing a mask where you
can't social distance

01:39.110 --> 01:42.290
and staying home if you're sick.

01:42.290 --> 01:44.810
Please, continue to take care of yourself,

01:44.810 --> 01:46.500
your family and our community.

01:46.500 --> 01:48.150
We'll be back with you on Friday.
