The Navy will keep existing COVID-19 precautions in place for the upcoming fall E-4 through E-6 active and reserve advancement cycles. It’s the same method used successfully for the last few advancement cycles. This means E-4 advancement exams for active duty (AD), full-time support (FTS), and drilling reserve Sailors are cancelled. Instead, qualified E-3s will be identified for advancement using the alternate Final Multiple Score (FMS) process that has been in effect since COVID-19 precautions started in March 2020. The cancellation was announced in NAVADMINs 104/21 for AD and FTS, and 105/21 for Selected Reserve (SELRES) Sailors, both released on May 25. These cancellations impact all E-4 exams scheduled as part of the AD and FTS Cycle 252, as well as the SELRES Cycle 109. The only exception will be those drilling reservists taking the exam through the E-4 Prior Service Reenlistment Eligibility – Reserve (PRISE-R) program. All other eligible E-3 Sailors will instead be ranked for advancement using an alternative FMS rank-order method without inclusion of the exam score, from a proctored exam. Fleet feedback from previous rank-order E-4 advancements has been positive. The message also outlined the Navy’s plans for administering September’s E-5 and E-6 exams on a staggered schedule throughout the month as a further precaution against the virus. “With uncertainty as to where the COVID-19 situation will be this fall, the Navy’s advancement team continues to work to ensure the safety of our Sailors,” said Rear Adm. James P. Waters, Director, Military Personnel Plans and Policy. “We are sure this method of advancing Sailors continues to advance qualified Sailors, maintaining the standards and culture of learning that drive our fleet enlisted advancement system.” The Naval Education Training and Professional Development Center (NETPDC) will not receive E-4 exam answer sheets. It is essential commands scrub the records of their advancement eligible E-3 Sailors to ensure all their E-4 Enlisted Advancement Worksheets are uploaded to the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System, and up to date. For Active Duty and Full Time Support Cycle 252, exams will be executed in two-week windows in September. The E-6 window will run Sept. 1 through 16, while the E-5 exams will follow, Sept. 17 through 30. The window for the Selected Reserve E-5 and E-6 and E-4 PRISE-R Cycle 109 exams will run from Aug. 1 through Sept. 12. Every effort should be made to spread the administration of exams evenly throughout each window in order to minimize the number of exam takers at one time, as well as allowing for maximum physical distancing. Commands are strongly encouraged to test all candidates for a given rating and paygrade at the same time to maintain exam integrity. Once exams are given, Educational Services Officers are encouraged to quickly mail in answer sheet packages to NETPDC. Used exams should not be held until the end of the testing window. This will ensure exams are processed and results are released in a timely manner. Currently, the anticipated release for the total force results is November 2021. However, release of the results are heavily dependent upon prompt submission of completed answer sheets. Leadership at all levels should read NAVADMINs 104/21 and 105/21 in their entirety and direct questions to the listed points of contact.

This NAVADMIN announces updates to the CPPA program in order to further improve Fleet readiness and warfighting effectiveness through more timely and accurate pay and personnel transactions. 2. Since the reorganization of Personnel Support Detachments (PSD) and Transaction Service Centers (TSC), CNPC has noticed an unforeseen fracture of accountability that has developed between the Fleet and the processors at PSDs/TSCs. As CNPC continues to make iterative changes to processes to serve the Fleet better, it must be stressed that improving this situation cannot be done from Millington alone. To ensure that the correct personnel are sent to the correct billets at the correct time with the correct pay, Fleet involvement and command emphasis on the CPPA program must be promoted. 3. In reference (a), Chief of Naval Personnel (CNP) discussed an update to MILPERSMAN 1000-021, CPPA Program, and future replacements to the Transaction Online Processing System (TOPS) and the Navy Pay and Personnel (NP2) system. Due to delays concerning system security and budget shortfalls, these updates have been pushed to the right. As such, the update to MILPERSMAN 1000-021 has also been delayed. 4. Key areas where CPPAs are critical to the success of providing timely and accurate pay and personnel transactions to our Sailors around the Fleet are: 1) professionalization, 2) adherence to Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) reporting requirements, 3) timely submission of system access requests, and 4) command support and engagement. Continued focus and improvement on these programs, processes and policies will ensure that the CPPAs and PSD/TSC processors are able to provide world-class support to improve Fleet readiness and warfighting effectiveness. a. Professionalize the CPPA workforce. Reference (a) announced updates to the CPPA program, designed to professionalize the CPPA workforce. Key enablers included coding billets with the A16A CPPA Navy enlisted classification (NEC) to deliver trained Sailors to commands, providing increased systems access via the expanded NSIPS CPPA User role and enabling CPPAs to gain Sailors to commands and upload Key Supporting Documents (KSD) directly. As Navy Pay and Personnel Support Center (NPPSC) continues to refine how to solve pay issues and report metrics, it is imperative that trained, decentralized CPPAs push accurate information delivered from Sailors. Commands ensuring this first step and NPPSC providing timely feedback will reduce pay issues. b. NSIPS Reporting Requirements: (1) In line with reference (a), CPPAs were directed to submit completed NSIPS Panel 1 gains by the end of the first business day after a Sailor reports for duty. Since 1 December 2020, pay and personnel metrics indicate CPPAs have steadily increased their use of NSIPS Panel 1 reporting but are not in full compliance. The March 2021 metrics revealed that only a third of all gains use NSIPS Panel 1 and the remaining two thirds of gains were performed by the supporting PSD/TSC, based on receiving KSDs via TOPS. The latency associated with using TOPS and a transaction initiated by a PSD/TSC clerk adds unnecessary delays in personnel reporting and updating unit readiness. This lack of compliance leads to inaccurate reporting of Fleet manning. (2) CPPA use of NSIPS Panel 1 reporting to gain Sailors is now mandatory. Starting 1 June 2021, NPPSC will provide monthly metrics data to the Fleet and Type Commanders of all units consistently out of compliance, focusing on those unexcused, expired gains beyond 10 business days. c. System Access Requests. Unit readiness has a direct correlation to CPPAs providing accurate and timely NSIPS activity reporting. All PSD/TSC- supported commands were directed by reference (a) to ensure a minimum of two CPPAs had access to and actively used the NSIPS CPPA User role by 1 December 2020. CPPA access to NSIPS via system access request is now mandatory. d. Command Support. The following is a review of the actions that must be taken by Commands and their CPPAs: (1) Commands must verify they have the appropriate A16A Billets Authorized and Sailors have attended CPPA C-School. Distribution will assign the CPPA C-School en route if the billet is coded with the A16A NEC. If not, there is no demand signal from the Fleet that the requirement exists. If there is insufficient billeted CPPA support at the command, COs must take the appropriate action through their respective ISICs/TYCOMs to assign the CPPA NEC to those PS and/or YN billets. CPPA is not an appropriate collateral duty outside these administrative ratings, and the legacy CPPA training course will retire by the end of FY-21. (2) When gaining new Sailors, CPPAs submit completed NSIPS Panel 1 events by the end of the first business day after a Sailor reports for duty, and have the KSDs submitted to the supporting PSD/TSC by the end of the second business day. A review of expired gains should be completed monthly. (3) All PSD/TSC-supported commands must ensure a minimum of two CPPAs have access to and actively use the NSIPS CPPA User role. Commands must provide the names of their CPPAs to their supporting PSD/TSC and keep information current as CPPAs transfer in and out of their commands. (4) Within 36 months of assignment, CPPAs must complete the 24 required eLearning courses along with related personnel qualification standards line items. e. CNPC Support. In March, CNPC held the first CPPA town hall event that highlighted some of these important collaborations. Additionally, CNPC will provide monthly feedback to leadership with the status of CPPA-to-processor partnership. 5. TOPS Replacement Update a. The transition from TOPS to the MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tool has been delayed. Cutover from TOPS to MNCC CRM is driven by the customer base requesting and obtaining accounts and may vary across the PSDs/TSCs. The transition will re-commence in June 2021. b. To gain access to the MNCC CRM, users must submit a complete and timely System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) request using the Account Request/SAAR-N step-by-step guide, which may be requested by contacting MNCC at 833-330-MNCC (6622) or via e-mail at askmncc(at)navy.mil. Users should expect account creation within 10 business days of submitting their request to the centralized mailbox ecmr_perspay.fct(at)navy.mil. New account holders will receive an e-mail once the MNCC CRM account has been created. If corrections are required, an e-mail identifying areas for correction will be sent to the user. If, after 14 business days of submitting a SAAR-N you have not received an e-mail that your account has been created or that corrections are required, send a status request inquiry to the MNCC e-mail account. For proper routing, the subject line should be *SAAR-N STATUS REQUEST ICO Your Name, UIC Number* c. Users must login at least every 30 days to prevent account lock out. d. PSDs/TSCs and NPPSC will provide additional MNCC CRM training upon request. 6. NPC, MNCC, and NPPSC staffs continue to seek improvements to personnel and pay service delivery across the global network, a key component of which is CPPA performance. The success of the enterprise requires collaboration, communication and feedback, as well as command triad leadership support and engagement. Similarly, it is imperative that Sailors review their personnel data early and often and report issues to their CPPA, MNCC, or the Navy Reserve Activity/Navy Operational Support Center. Sailors are encouraged to contact MNCC for any issues or to provide feedback. For CPPAs only, MNCC call center option 2 is the CPPA Pro-to-Pro Cell and provides a direct line for subject matter expert assistance. 7. This NAVADMIN will remain in effect until superseded or cancelled, whichever occurs first. 8. Released by Vice Admiral John B. Nowell, Jr, N1.// BT #0001 NNNN UNCLASSIFIED//

Users must be vigilant as CUI is not allowed on non-government devices (i.e. personal desktop and laptop computers, tablets, and mobile phones). 2. Key definitions (from references (b) and (c)): a. CUI. UNCLASSIFIED information the Government creates or possesses, or that an entity creates or possesses for or on behalf of the Government, that a law, regulation, or Government-wide policy requires or permits an agency to handle using safeguarding or dissemination controls, but does not meet the requirements for classification per Executive Order 13526 or the Atomic Energy Act. b. Legacy for Official Use Only (FOUO). Prior to the CUI program, this was a dissemination control marking applied to unclassified information that disclosure to the public of that particular Record, or portion thereof, would reasonably be expected to cause a foreseeable harm to an interest protected by one or more Exemptions of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). FOUO information does not automatically become CUI and is not interchangeable with CUI. (1) Legacy FOUO material is not required to be re-marked or redacted while it remains under Department of Defense (DoD) control or is accessed online and downloaded for use within the DoD. (2) Legacy FOUO material or new derivative documents must be marked as CUI if the information qualifies as CUI, particularly if it is being shared with other government departments. c. DoD CUI Registry. Provides an official list of Categories used to identify the various types of CUI. Individuals must use the DoD CUI registry to ensure proper identification of all CUI material. The registry is located at: https://www.dodcui.mil/Home/DoD-CUI-Registry. d. Authorized Holders. Individuals that designate or handle CUI and are responsible for determining, at the time of creation, whether information in a document falls into a CUI category. If so, the authorized holder is responsible for applying CUI markings and dissemination instructions accordingly, in accordance with reference (b) and (c). e. Lawful Government Purpose. Any activity, mission, function, operation, or endeavor that the U.S. Government authorizes or recognizes as within the scope of its legal authorities or the legal authorities of non- executive branch entities (such as state and local law enforcement). f. Limited Dissemination Controls (LDC). Any control used to limit or specify CUI dissemination. (1) Only Authorized Holders can apply this additional marking and will only be used to promote a Lawful Government Purpose. (2) All LDCs must be approved by the CUI Executive Agent (EA) listed in the CUI Registry (for example, CUI marked FED ONLY further restricts sharing to Federal Employees; CUI marked NOCON prohibits sharing with Contractors). Lawful Government Purpose requires that Authorized Holders of CUI must not share CUI where sharing is prohibited, restricted, or further subject to LDCs. 3. General CUI Guidelines. a. The FLANK SPEED Authority to Operate permits processing and storage of CUI data types, as listed in reference (b), up to moderate impact Personally Identifiable Information (PII). All policies for handling permitted CUI data types still apply. (1) The following data types are not yet authorized on FLANK SPEED: (a) Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act information, to include Protected Health Information (b) Navy Nuclear Propulsion Information (NNPI) (c) Law Enforcement Sensitive (LES) data (2) Authorization for above listed data types is planned as part of future capability releases. Users will be notified when these data types are authorized. (3) Users are responsible for verifying with their Information System Security Manager (ISSM) and Command Security Manager (CSM) the permitted CUI data types authorized on the network(s) they are using. b. Organizations and all Navy military, civilian, and contractor personnel are responsible for following the guidelines outlined in references (b) and (c) for handling and protecting CUI. c. Per references (b) and (c), personnel will not use unofficial or personal (e.g., .net, .com, etc.) e-mail accounts, messaging systems, or other non-DoD information systems to conduct official business involving CUI. d. Approved/authorized government contractor systems are permitted to handle CUI. e. Access to CUI is based on whether the individual has a Lawful Government Purpose. While similar to Need to Know for classified information, Lawful Government Purpose has a different litmus test. See reference (b) for guidance on Lawful Government Purpose. 4. Training. All personnel (military, civilian, and contractor) who are authorized access to classified information systems must receive initial and annual refresher CUI education and training. The Center for Development of Security Excellence (CDSE), an element of the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA), has developed and released the only authorized and approved DoD CUI training module. The training module is accessed at https://www.dodcui.mil/Home/Training/. When accessing the website, click on the CDSE Current CUI link to access the training and resource materials. 5.

Where conflicts with reference (a) exist, this NAVADMIN takes precedence. 2. For the most current information concerning open designator codes, visit https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/career-planning/commissioning-programs, click the *Active-Duty LDO/CWO In- Service Procurement Board* link, then select Applicant Information link, then select current LDO and CWO designators link. 3. Eligibility. All applicants for the LDO, CWO and WO1 programs must have a security clearance prior to commissioning, must be able to complete operational duty screening and be worldwide assignable. Updated policy guidance to reference (a): a. All time-in-service (TIS) and time-in-grade (TIG) requirements for the FY-23 Active-Duty LDO and CWO In-Service Procurement Board (ISPB) will be computed to 1 October 2022. b. TIS and TIG requirements are: (1) LDO: 8-14 years TIS and 1 year TIG for E-6 and above. TIS waivers beyond 14 years will be considered up to 180 days for LDO applicants. No further exceptions will be entertained. (2) Applicants for LDO off-ramp designators (629X, 651X, 681X and 682X) may apply with up to 15 years of service and must understand designator specific off-ramp requirements and procedures defined in references (b) through (d). TIS waivers will not be considered or exceptions granted for off-ramp designators. (3) Nuclear Power LDO (620X) applicants may apply with up to 16 years of service.

(6) Due to the FY-22 Enlisted Selection Board schedule for Active E-7 (9 August 21 - 10 September 21), First Class Petty Officers awaiting CPO results to apply for CWO are encouraged to apply and submit their application by the 1 October 2021 deadline with the following guidelines: (a) Commands are directed to proceed with the application process for these applicants as outlined in this NAVADMIN. (b) First Class Petty Officers awaiting CPO selection results must add the following statement at the top of the Commanding Officers endorsement: *Member is awaiting CPO results.* PERS-803 will set aside these applications until CPO results are announced. (c) First Class evaluations due 15 November 2021 will be submitted as an addendum per guidelines of this NAVADMIN. If selected for CPO and the pinning date is after 15 November 2021, the close-out eval is not required. Once all of the CPO results are in, PERS-803 will integrate or remove those records/applications accordingly. (7) WO1 (784X only): 6 to 14 years TIS for E-5 and above. TIS waivers will not be considered or exceptions granted. Cyber Warrant Officer WO1 (784X) applicants refer to eligibility requirements listed in reference (e). c. To support career progression models and maximize the return on investment for the Navy, TIS waivers must be submitted to ldocwoocm.fct(at)navy.mil before 15 July 2021 for adjudication. Approved waivers must be submitted with the application. d. Intelligence CWO (783X) applicants will be considered for selection into one of three Core Competency Areas (CCA): CI/HUMINT, GEOINT/Targeting or OPINTEL. In order to apply, applicants must request a primary CCA and those holding qualifying NECs in more than one field may request a secondary CCA (i.e., 783X CI/HUMINT / 783X OPINTEL). e. First class petty officers serving in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Horn of Africa determined to be chief petty officer board eligible in line with reference (f) are also eligible for LDO if all other eligibility requirements are met. f. Due to ongoing rating mergers or realignments, eligible Sailors are encouraged to apply for the designator for which they have extensive documented technical expertise and leadership experience in their enlisted service records, regardless of current rating. However, special attention should be given to the guidance in chapter 7, subparagraph 9c of reference (a). g. Applicants in designators outlined in reference (a) requiring to meet color perception requirements shall have test results documented as a telephone consult (T-Con) in Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology Application (AHLTA) within the past 12 months and provide hard copy or have test results documented on SF-600 and submitted with application. h. Applicants must maintain eligibility throughout the selection and promotion process. Applicants who are deemed ineligible after submitting an application must be declared ineligible by their current Commanding Officer/Officer in Charge (CO/OIC). A sample Removal of Recommendation format is located at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/career- Planning/commissioning-programs. Click the *Active-Duty LDO/CWO In-Service Procurement Board* link, then select Applicant Information, then select LDO and CWO In-Service Procurement Board to download the form (See Sample Letter of Abeyance or Removal of Recommendation). Nuclear Power LDO (620X) applicants who are deemed ineligible must be declared ineligible by their current CO via letter to the Nuclear Program Manager (OPNAV N133). 4. Appraisal Boards. (Not required for Nuclear Power LDO 620X) Active duty interview appraisal boards will be coordinated and approved by the CO/OIC and consist of three Active Duty Naval Officers (LDOs or CWOs preferred). Every effort (including teleconference media) shall be made to ensure the senior board member is from the LDO or CWO designator family for which the applicant is applying. a. It is highly recommended that the senior member of the interview panel for applicants applying for LDO is an in-designator commander (CDR) or above. If not available, a LDO CDR or above in another designator can serve in this capacity with at least one board member from the designator family. Officers who were CDR or CAPT LDOs that reverted to another designator via Without Board Action (WOBA) process can serve as the senior member. In communities where there are no longer senior LDOs within the community, a CDR or CAPT from the parent community can act as the senior board member, e.g., a Supply Corps (3100) CDR or CAPT for Supply (651X) applicants. b. For CWO applicants, the senior member of the interview panel shall be a LCDR or above with at least one in-designator CWO4 or CWO5 as a board member. If a LCDR or above is not available, a CWO5 can serve as the senior board member as long as the other members are junior (CWO3, CWO4). c. Minimum grade requirements for board members are Lieutenant or CWO3. d. Only three interview appraisals are authorized to be submitted for each applicant. e. Interview Appraisal Board member preparation for applicant appraisal boards is an important part of a well-run board. Review of the applicant application, review of discrete requirements for the applicant designator, having well thought out questions on technical expertise, leadership and knowledge of the designator they are applying for to include future career path if selected are all great examples of board member preparation. f. The technical ability and potential block on the interview appraisal sheet must be marked for LDO and CWO candidates. Only the current version of the interviewer appraisal sheet will be accepted. Interviewer appraisal sheet is located at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/career-planning/commissioning-programs. Click the *Active-Duty LDO/CWO In-Service Procurement Board* link, then select Applicant Information, then select LDO and CWO In-Service Procurement Board to download the form. 5. Application Submission. Communication to the board (application, addendums, etc.) should originate from the applicant via their CO. However, it is acceptable for the command to submit an applicants package on their behalf, provided that the package has been endorsed by the CO and the applicant has been provided a copy of their entire package prior to submission. Information received that is not under the cover letter of the applicant (e.g., third party correspondence) and endorsed by the command, or not received by the MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) by the established deadline(s) will not be presented to the board. a. All applications must be submitted along with a command screened LDO/CWO Eligibility Checklist. b. Each applicant and CO/OIC must ensure applications/addendums are complete and accurate. Incomplete applications could result in non- selection. Applications must be signed by the CO/OIC of the applicant or *Acting*. Addendums can be signed *By direction* if the CO or OIC is unavailable. c. As previously stated, all applicants must possess a security clearance prior to commission. Refer to reference (a), (chapters 2 and 7) for security clearance information, program overview and eligibility criteria. d. CO/OIC endorsements must contain the following statement: *Applicant meets all requirements outlined in OPNAVINST 1420.1B, NAVADMIN 116/21, the physical fitness standards of OPNAVINST 6110.1J, and is worldwide assignable.* The endorsement must clearly identify the command, and must be signed by the CO/OIC, and include the CO or OICs command point of contact information. e. Applicants must ensure a copy of their most recent periodic evaluation is included in the application or provided via addendum for board review and continuity if they are not already in Official Military Personnel File (OMPF). f. Applicants are not required to include an obligatory service statement to remain on active duty as part of their personal statement. g. Applicants currently serving in an IAMM, GSA or OSA assignment may have their application endorsed by the field commander. Field commanders must obtain parent command endorsement prior to submission. A sample format is located at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/career-planning/commissioning-programs . Click the *Active-Duty LDO/CWO In-Service Procurement Board* link then select Applicant Information, then select LDO and CWO In- Service Procurement Board to download the form (See Sample Addendum Letter). h. Applicants must submit sequentially numbered enclosures to the application/addendum, annotated on the bottom right corner of each page with the last name and full social security number of the applicant in the top right corner. Addendums must include a command endorsement. The FY-23 Active-Duty LDO and CWO ISPB board number is 23181. The FY-23 Active-Duty Nuclear LDO ISPB board number is 23182. i.

THIS MESSAGE UPDATES PARAGRAPH (7) IN U.S. NAVY COVID-19 STANDING GUIDANCE. REF (A) IS CANCELLED. WITH MORE THAN A YEAR OPERATING IN THE COVID-19 ENVIRONMENT, OUR SAILORS, CIVILIANS AND CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL HAVE ASSUMED PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND GAINED SIGNIFICANT EXPERTISE IN MITIGATING AND PREVENTING THE SPREAD OF THE DISEASE AS DEMONSTRATED BY ACHIEVING THE LOWEST SERVICE COVID-19 CASE COUNT AND HIGHEST VACCINATION RATES. WE MUST CONTINUE TO PURSUE FULL VACCINATION AND APPLY BEST HEALTH PROTECTION MEASURES BOTH AT HOME AND AT WORK TO SUSTAIN AND IMPROVE UPON THIS PERFORMANCE. COMMANDING OFFICERS ARE ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HEALTH PROTECTION OF THEIR CREWS AND SHOULD APPLY THE GUIDANCE PROVIDED BELOW TO BEST FIT THEIR SPECIFIC OPERATIONAL SITUATION SUPPORTED BY THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY AND GUIDED BY THEIR CHAIN OF COMMAND. IN THE ABSENCE OF OPNAV OR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE (DOD) GUIDANCE, FOLLOW THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL (CDC) GUIDANCE. WIDESPREAD IMMUNIZATION, COMMAND ENGAGEMENT, CREW OWNERSHIP, AND INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTABILITY ARE THE CORNERSTONES TO OUR SUCCESS TO DATE. HEALTH PROTECTION MEASURES SUCH AS VACCINATION, THE CREATION OF A BUBBLE, FACE COVERINGS, PHYSICAL DISTANCING, STAYING OUT OF THE WORKSPACE WHEN FEELING ILL AND AGGRESSIVE SPACE CLEANING ARE THE GREATEST INFLUENCERS TO PREVENT AND ISOLATE COVID-19. THE COVID-19 VACCINES AUTHORIZED BY THE U.S. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION ARE SAFE, EFFECTIVE AND IN PARTICULAR, ARE VITAL TO PROTECTING RECIPIENTS FROM HOSPITALIZATION AND DEATH. COMMANDING OFFICERS SHOULD MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO EDUCATE THEIR CREWS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF VACCINATION AND FACILITATE OPEN DISCUSSIONS WITH MEDICAL PERSONNEL IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS. DOCUMENTED COVID-19 CASES AMONG IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL ARE VERY INFREQUENT AND ALL CASES HAVE BEEN MILD TO MODERATE. CONSISTENT WITH REF (F), TO DATE NONE OF THE MORE THAN 230,000 FULLY IMMUNIZED NAVY AND MARINE CORPS MEMBERS HAVE BEEN HOSPITALIZED. 2. DEFINITIONS. COVID-19 CASE, CLOSE CONTACT, INFLUENZA LIKE ILLNESS (ILI), ISOLATION, QUARANTINE, TESTING (DIAGNOSTIC, SCREENING, AND SURVEILLANCE), AND OTHER DEFINITIONS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE CDC WEBSITE. THE FOLLOWING NAVY DEFINITIONS ARE PROVIDED: 2.A. PATIENT (OR PERSON) UNDER INVESTIGATION (PUI): AN INDIVIDUAL WITH SYMPTOMS OF COVID-19 WHO HAS A TEST RESULT PENDING OR WOULD HAVE BEEN TESTED HAD A TEST BEEN AVAILABLE. ASYMPTOMATIC INDIVIDUALS QUARANTINED DUE TO CLOSE CONTACT WITH A COVID-19 POSITIVE MEMBER ARE NOT CLASSIFIED AS PUIS. ASYMPTOMATIC INDIVIDUALS BEING TESTED FOR COVID-19 ARE NOT CONSIDERED PUIS WHILE AWAITING TEST RESULTS. 2.B. HIGH-RISK PERSONNEL: THOSE INDIVIDUALS, DESIGNATED BY A MEDICAL PROVIDER, WHO MEET THE CDC CRITERIA FOR INCREASED RISK OF SEVERE ILLNESS HTTPS://WWW.CDC.GOV/CORONAVIRUS/2019-NCOV/NEED-EXTRA-PRECAUTIONS/ PEOPLE-AT-HIGHER-RISK.HTML. 2.C. RESTRICTION OF MOVEMENT (ROM): GENERAL DOD TERM FOR LIMITING PERSONAL INTERACTION TO REDUCE RISK TO THE HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE OF A BROADER COHORT. PERSONNEL EXECUTING A ROM ARE CONSIDERED TO BE IN A DUTY STATUS AND ROM PERIODS WILL NOT BE COUNTED AS LEAVE. 2.C.1. ROM-SEQUESTER: U.S. NAVY TERM FOR PREEMPTIVE SEPARATION OF FORCES TO REDUCE RISK OF INFECTION WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ESTABLISH A COVID-FREE BUBBLE. 2.D. BUBBLE: TERM FOR INDIVIDUALS, UNITS OR INSTALLATIONS THAT HAVE ESTABLISHED LOW PROBABILITY OF COVID-19 INFECTION DUE TO CREW IMMUNIZATION LEVEL AND/OR COMPLETION OF 14 DAY ROM-SEQUESTER FOR NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS. 2.E. VACCINATED: AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS RECEIVED THE FIRST SHOT IN A SERIES OF TWO SHOTS OF COVID-19 VACCINE. WHILE NOT USED IN THE TRADITIONAL MEDICAL CONTEXT, THE TERMS VACCINATED AND IMMUNIZED WILL BE USED TO DIFFERENTIATE THOSE WHO HAVE RECEIVED PARTIAL OR FULL DOSES, RESPECTIVELY. 2.F. IMMUNIZED / FULLY VACCINATED: INTERCHANGEABLE TERMS FOR AN INDIVIDUAL WHO COMPLETED THE VACCINE SERIES AND IS CONSIDERED IMMUNE TWO WEEKS AFTER THE VACCINE SEQUENCE IS COMPLETE. IMMUNITY DURATION WILL BE GUIDED BY CDC, BUT IS NO LESS THAN SEVEN MONTHS FOR THIS STANDING GUIDANCE. 2.G. DEFERRED: AN INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS OFFERED AN AUTHORIZED VACCINE, BUT DECLINED OR WAS UNABLE TO RECEIVE IT FOR ANY REASON. THESE INDIVIDUALS ARE ENCOURAGED AND ALLOWED TO CHOOSE, AT ANY TIME, TO RECEIVE THE VACCINE UNLESS MEDICALLY CONTRAINDICATED. AFTER RECEIVING A VACCINE DOSE, AN INDIVIDUAL WILL NO LONGER BE LISTED AS DEFERRED. 2.H. BUBBLE TO BUBBLE TRANSFER (B2BT): TERM FOR MOVEMENT OF UNITS OR PERSONNEL FROM ONE BUBBLE TO ANOTHER VIA CONTROLLED MEANS. A WIDE VARIETY OF MODES OR MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION CAN BE USED FOR B2BT. THE KEY FACTOR IS THAT THE EVOLUTION IS CLOSELY CONTROLLED TO MINIMIZE RISK OF COVID-19 EXPOSURE TO BOTH INDIVIDUALS AND UNITS WHO HAVE NOT COMPLETED A ROM-SEQUESTER DURING TRANSFER. 2.I. HEALTH PROTECTION MEASURES (HPM): TERM FOR MEASURES TAKEN TO DECREASE RISK OF COVID-19 IN AN OPERATIONAL SETTING. THIS INCLUDES PHYSICAL DISTANCING, WEARING OF FACEMASKS, AND ENHANCED ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANING. FULLY IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO WEAR FACEMASKS OR PHYSICALLY DISTANCE FROM OTHERS. EXCEPTIONS ARE THAT FACEMASKS ARE STILL REQUIRED FOR ALL MEDICAL AND DENTAL PERSONNEL WHEN PROVIDING HEALTH CARE AND FOR ALL INDIVIDUALS UNDERGOING TRAVEL ABOARD PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO JOIN A CREW ALREADY UNDERWAY, REGARDLESS OF IMMUNIZATION STATUS. 3. CLOSE CONTACTS AND SYMPTOMATIC PERSONNEL. 3.A. CLOSE CONTACTS WHO HAVE BEEN FULLY VACCINATED AND INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE TESTED POSITIVE IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS DO NOT NEED TO QUARANTINE. ASYMPTOMATIC PERSONNEL WHO ARE NOT IMMUNIZED AND ARE SUSPECTED OF EXPOSURE SHALL QUARANTINE IN ACCORDANCE WITH (IAW) CDC AND LOCAL MEDICAL GUIDANCE. 3.B. SYMPTOMATIC PERSONNEL REGARDLESS OF IMMUNIZATION STATUS SHALL FOLLOW LOCAL MEDICAL AND CDC GUIDANCE ON WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU ARE SICK. 3.C. A NON-IMMUNIZED PATIENT WITH SUSPECTED COVID-LIKE ILLNESS (CLI) OR ILI WHO HAS TESTED NEGATIVE FOR COVID-19 MAY RETURN TO WORK AFTER: (1) AT LEAST 24 HOURS AFTER THE RESOLUTION OF FEVER WITHOUT THE USE OF FEVER REDUCING MEDICATION; (2) IMPROVEMENT IN SYMPTOMS AND; (3) AT LEAST 10 DAYS SINCE THE ONSET OF SYMPTOMS. IMMUNIZED PATIENTS WITH SUSPECTED CLI/ILI SHOULD CONSULT THEIR MEDICAL PROVIDER BEFORE RETURNING TO WORK. 3.D. COVID-19 CASES MAY CONTINUE TO TEST POSITIVE FOR UP TO THREE MONTHS DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF PERSISTENT NON-INFECTIOUS VIRAL FRAGMENTS AND THEREFORE EXEMPT FROM TESTING PROTOCOL FOR THREE MONTHS FROM THE EARLIER OF SYMPTOM ONSET OR FIRST POSITIVE TEST. INDIVIDUALS WHO EXHIBIT NEW OR PERSISTENT SYMPTOMS DURING THAT THREE MONTH PERIOD SHOULD BE EVALUATED BY A MEDICAL PROVIDER. 3.E. OUTBREAK INVESTIGATION AND CONTACT TRACING WORKFORCE TRAINING. EACH COMMAND WILL MAINTAIN THE ABILITY TO EXECUTE CONTACT TRACING FOR ASSIGNED PERSONNEL BY HAVING AN APPROPRIATE NUMBER OF PERSONNEL TRAINED (NO LESS THAN TWO) BASED ON UNIT IMMUNIZATION LEVEL. NAVY E-LEARNING: CONTACT TRACING TRAINING FOR SAILORS AND MARINES CFHP-NMFSC-CTSM-01 OR TEST-OUT ASSESSMENT FOR CONTACT TRACING TRAINING FOR SAILORS AND MARINES CFHP-NMFSC-CTSMTA-01. 4. DEPLOYED OPERATIONS 4.A. PRE-DEPLOYMENT SCREENING. SCREENING FOR ALL PERSONNEL WILL CONSIST OF AN ASSESSMENT OF EXPOSURE HISTORY, A REVIEW OF ANY PAST TESTING AND A THOROUGH EVALUATION OF THE MEMBERS RISK FACTORS FOR SEVERE ILLNESS FROM COVID-19. THE DECISION TO DEPLOY A HIGH RISK INDIVIDUAL MUST BE MADE, AT A MINIMUM, BY THE COMMANDING OFFICER IN CONSULTATION WITH MEDICAL PROVIDERS. MILITARY SEALIFT COMMAND (MSC) WILL MEDICALLY SCREEN CIVIL SERVICE AND CONTRACT PERSONNEL FOR DEPLOYMENT ON MSC VESSELS IAW EXISTING MSC INSTRUCTIONS AND CONTRACTS. IMMUNIZATION STATUS SHOULD BE PART OF THE DECISION TO DEPLOY HIGH RISK PERSONNEL ALONG WITH THE PERCENT OF THE UNIT IMMUNIZED, THE PROXIMITY TO AN MILITARY TREATMENT FACILITY (MTF) OR AFLOAT MEDICAL FACILITY WITH COVID THERAPEUTICS AND ICU CAPABILITIES, AND MEDICAL PROVIDER CONSULTATION. 4.B. PRE-DEPLOYMENT ROM-SEQUESTER. ROM-SEQUESTER IS NOT REQUIRED FOR IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS ATTACHED TO SHIPS OR SUBMARINES, NOR FOR IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS TRAVELING BY AIRCRAFT UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY GCC AS MEANS OF RESPECTING HN LAW OR BY A MORE RESTRICTIVE DOD POLICY. FOR NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS ONLY, 14-DAY ROM-SEQUESTER WITH TEST-IN AND TEST-OUT IS REQUIRED PRIOR TO DEPLOYMENT.DURING ROM-SEQUESTER, CONDUCT ENHANCED DAILY PERSONNEL MEDICAL SCREENING. 4.B.1. IAW REF (D), NON-IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL DEPLOYING OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES NOT USING MILITARY/CHARTERED TRANSPORTATION WILL CONDUCT A 14-DAY ROM PRIOR TO DEPLOYMENT UNLESS COMBATANT COMMAND MANDATES IN-COUNTRY ROM. IAW REF (B), NCC MAY DELEGATE TO FIRST FLAG OFFICER/SES IN CHAIN OF COMMAND THE AUTHORIZATION TO REDUCE THIS ROM TIMELINE TO AS FEW AS SEVEN DAYS IF OPERATIONALLY NECESSARY WITH A NEGATIVE PCR TEST ADMINISTERED ONE TO THREE DAYS PRIOR TO EMBARKATION. INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE HAD COVID-19 IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS ARE EXEMPT FROM ROM. IF TRAVELING OCONUS AND THE HOST NATION REQUIRES IN-COUNTRY ROM, CONUS PRE-DEPLOYMENT ROM-SEQUESTER IS NOT REQUIRED UNLESS THE HOST NATION OR COMBATANT COMMAND EXPLICITLY MANDATES BOTH. IMMUNIZED AND NON-IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL MUST CONSULT FOREIGN CLEARANCE GUIDANCE FOR MOST CURRENT REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO ALL TRAVELERS, AVAILABLE AT HTTPS://WWW.FCG.PENTAGON.MIL. 4.B.2. ROM-SEQUESTER CONDUCTED ASHORE REQUIRES ISOLATION PER CDC GUIDANCE (IDEALLY SEPARATE ROOM, NO SHARED BATHROOM). A SECOND TEST SHALL BE CONDUCTED ON OR AFTER DAY 14 FOR NON-IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL. A NEGATIVE COVID TEST RESULT IS REQUIRED TO EMBARK AN OPERATIONAL UNIT IF NON-IMMUNIZED, OR IAW WITH NCC APPROVED COMMUNITY CONOPS (E.G., SSN/SSBN). 4.C. UNDERWAY HEALTH PROTECTION MEASURES (HPM). BASED ON A YEAR OF EXPERIENCE AND EXTENSIVE MODELING BY NAVY AND MARINE CORPS PUBLIC HEALTH CENTER INCORPORATING BASELINE NATURAL IMMUNITY, COVID PREVALENCE AND VACCINE EFFECTIVENESS WHICH IS CONTAINED IN REFS (E) AND (F), RECOMMEND UNDERWAY HPM IMPLEMENTATION AS FOLLOWS: -- LARGE DECKS WITH MEDICAL CAPABILITY (LPD/LHD/LHA/CVNS) AFTER NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS COMPLETE QUALITY 14 DAY PRE-DEPLOYMENT ROM AND HAVE A NEGATIVE PCR TEST PRIOR TO EMBARKING: NCCS MAY RELAX HPM FOR ALL CREWMEMBERS ONCE UNDERWAY PROVIDED IMMUNIZATION RATE OF COMBINED CREW IS GREATER THAN 70%. IF IMMUNIZATION RATE IS LESS THAN 70%, NON-IMMUNIZED CREWMEMBERS MUST PRACTICE HPM FOR AT LEAST 14 DAYS UNDERWAY. IF NO CASES FOR AT LEAST 14 DAYS, THEN NCCS MAY RELAX HPM. -- SMALLER SHIPS OR THOSE WITH LESS ON-BOARD MEDICAL CAPABILITY (LHD/LHA/LPDS WITHOUT FLEET SURGICAL TEAM OR BOARD CERTIFIED MEDICAL OFFICER EMBARKED), AFTER NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS COMPLETE QUALITY 14 DAY PRE-DEPLOYMENT ROM AND HAVE A NEGATIVE PCR TEST PRIOR TO EMBARK: NCCS MAY RELAX UNDERWAY HPM FOR ALL CREWMEMBERS ONCE UNDERWAY IF CREW IMMUNIZATION RATE IS GREATER THAN 80% (DUE TO LESS ONBOARD MEDICAL CAPABILITY). IF IMMUNIZATION RATE IS LESS THAN 80%, NON-IMMUNIZED CREWMEMBERS MUST PRACTICE HPM FOR AT LEAST 14 DAYS UNDERWAY. IF NO CASES FOR AT LEAST 14 DAYS, THEN NCCS MAY RELAX HPM. -- FOR ALL UNITS REGARDLESS OF TYPE WHEN NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS HAVE NOT COMPLETED PRE-DEPLOYMENT ROM (E.G., LOCAL OPS, GROUP SAIL OR C2X): NCCS MAY RELAX UNDERWAY HPM FOR ALL CREWMEMBERS PROVIDED COMBINED IMMUNIZATION RATE IS AT LEAST 90%. IF IMMUNIZATION RATE IS LESS THAN 90%, NON-IMMUNIZED CREWMEMBERS MUST PRACTICE HPM FOR AT LEAST 14 DAYS UNDERWAY. IF NO CASES FOR AT LEAST 14 DAYS, THEN NCCS MAY RELAX HPM. -- HPM MEASURES MAY BE TEMPORARILY RELAXED WHERE OPERATIONALLY NECESSARY. -- IT IS ALWAYS GOOD PRACTICE FOR ALL CREWMEMBERS TO PRACTICE HPM WHENEVER PRACTICAL REGARDLESS OF VACCINATION STATUS TO HELP PREVENT A WIDE VARIETY OF SHIPBORNE DISEASES. 4.C.1. DISEASE SEVERITY AND VACCINES. GIVEN FDA AUTHORIZED VACCINES PROTECT AGAINST DISEASE SEVERITY, EVEN IN THE VERY SMALL PERCENT OF PEOPLE WHO MAY POTENTIALLY STILL GET COVID-19 INFECTION, THE RISK OF HAVING TO MEDEVAC AN IMMUNIZED COVID-19 INFECTED INDIVIDUAL IS EXTREMELY LOW. REDUCING THE LIKELIHOOD OF SEVERE ILLNESS IS A KEY OUTCOME MEASURE THAT SPEAKS TO THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN OPERATIONS AT SEA WITHIN EXISTING MEDICAL CAPABILITIES. 4.D. PENETRATING A BUBBLE. SHIP RIDERS (E.G., CONTRACTORS, TECH REPS, INSPECTION TEAMS, ETC.), DIRECT SUPPORT PERSONNEL, AND ALL OTHERS ASSISTING COMMANDS PRIOR TO BUBBLE ESTABLISHMENT WILL ADHERE TO LOCAL FORCE HEALTH PROTECTION MEASURES. WHEN INVOLVED IN MOVEMENT TO SEQUENTIAL COMMANDS, IT MAY BE ADVISABLE TO ROM-SEQUESTER NON-IMMUNIZED COHORTS, USE BUBBLE TO BUBBLE TRANSPORTATION, AND/OR TEST NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS PERIODICALLY. IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO ROM-SEQUESTER. NCCS MAY REQUIRE NON-IMMUNIZED SHIP RIDERS PENETRATING AN ESTABLISHED BUBBLE TO COMPLETE A 14- DAY ROM-SEQUESTER WITH TEST-IN AND TEST-OUT PRIOR TO EMBARKING DEPENDENT ON CREW IMMUNIZATION LEVEL. A TEST IS NOT REQUIRED FOR PERSONNEL WHO HAVE RECOVERED FROM COVID-19 WITHIN THE PAST 90 DAYS (DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSISTENT POSITIVE RESULTS IN NON-INFECTIOUS PERSONS). IMMUNIZED PCS AND SHIP RIDERS WHO ARE ASYMPTOMATIC DO NOT NEED TO CONDUCT ROM PRIOR TO EMBARKING A SHIP. MITIGATION PLANS FOR NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS TO PENETRATE AN ESTABLISHED BUBBLE WITHOUT A 14 DAY ROM-SEQUESTER AND/OR TEST DUE TO EMERGENT OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS MUST BE APPROVED BY THE COMMANDING OFFICER. 4.E. PORT VISITS. COMMANDING OFFICERS MAY ALLOW IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS ON UNITS MAKING PORT CALLS IN OVERSEAS SAFE HAVEN PORTS WHERE THERE IS U.S. PRESENCE AND BASE FACILITIES (E.G., GUAM, BAHRAIN, YOKOSUKA, ROTA, SASEBO) TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BASE SERVICES. GEOGRAPHIC NCCS (DELEGABLE TO NUMBERED FLEET COMMANDERS) WILL CONTROL FOREIGN PORT VISIT OFF-BASE LIBERTY FOR ALL INDIVIDUALS IN COORDINATION WITH COUNTRY TEAMS AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES TAKING INTO ACCOUNT INDIVIDUAL AND CREW IMMUNIZATION STATUS, COUNTRY COVID PREVALENCE AND MISSION REQUIREMENTS. 4.F. AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS. COMMANDERS MAY NEED TO EXEMPT AIRCREW AND AIRCRAFT MAINTAINERS FROM THIS GUIDANCE TO MEET EMERGENT OPERATIONAL OR NATOPS CURRENCY REQUIREMENTS. MITIGATION PLANS MUST BE APPROVED BY THE COMMANDING OFFICER. FOR AVIATION UNITS EMBARKED ON SURFACE UNITS, MITIGATION PLANS WILL BE INCLUDED AND APPROVED AS PART OF THE OVERALL SHIP HEALTH PROTECTION PLAN. 4.G. TESTING. TESTING IS THE ONLY METHOD TO DETECT ASYMPTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITHIN THE NON-IMMUNIZED FORCE. CONSIDER SCREENING TESTS FOR NON-IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS DURING OFRP CYCLE TO IDENTIFY COVID-19 EARLY AND TO BREAK THE TRANSMISSION CYCLE. CONTINUOUSLY ASSESS THE INTEGRITY OF A BUBBLE THROUGH CLI/ILI SCREENING OF NON-IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL. PLATFORMS WITH TESTING CAPABILITY SHOULD EMPLOY SYMPTOMATIC TESTING (DIAGNOSTIC) FOR EVERYONE AND TARGETED CREW TESTING (SCREENING) FOR NON- IMMUNIZED SAILORS. ALL COVID-19 DIAGNOSTIC TESTS MUST BE ENTERED IN THE MEDICAL RECORD. SCREENING AND SURVEILLANCE TESTS THAT ARE INDIVIDUALLY IDENTIFIABLE MUST BE ENTERED INTO THE MEDICAL RECORD. DIAGNOSTIC POOLED TESTING UNDERWAY IS ALLOWED FOR MODERATE COMPLEXITY LABS USING BIOFIRE AND CEPHEID AND WILL ONLY BE CONDUCTED IN DIRECT COORDINATION WITH NAVAL HEALTH RESEARCH CENTER AND REQUIRES NOTIFICATION OF BUMED SURGEON GENERAL OR DEPUTY SURGEON GENERALS OFFICE BY THE FLEET SURGEON. 4.H. POST-DEPLOYMENT. IAW CDC GUIDANCE, NON-IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL RETURNING TO CONUS FROM DEPLOYMENT ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A NEGATIVE VIRAL TEST RESULT NO MORE THAN THREE DAYS BEFORE TRAVEL INTO THE U.S.; BE TESTED 3-5 DAYS AFTER ARRIVAL AND STAY HOME AND SELF-QUARANTINE FOR SEVEN FULL DAYS, EVEN IF THE TEST IS NEGATIVE. POST DEPLOYMENT ROM AND TESTING IS NOT REQUIRED FOR PERSONNEL WHO HAVE RECOVERED FROM COVID-19 WITHIN THE PAST 90 DAYS (DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSISTENT POSITIVE RESULTS IN NON-INFECTIOUS PERSONS), AND DOES NOT APPLY TO SHIPS, THEIR EMBARKED AIRCRAFT OR SUBMARINES RETURNING TO PORT PROVIDED THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACTIVE COVID-19 CASES OR POTENTIAL CONTACT WITH INFECTED PERSONNEL DURING THE LAST 14 DAYS OF DEPLOYMENT.NON- IMMUNIZED INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT GET TESTED MUST STAY HOME AND SELF- QUARANTINE FOR 10 DAYS AFTER TRAVEL. NON-IMMUNIZED SERVICE MEMBERS REDEPLOYING FROM, ORTHROUGH, A FOREIGN COUNTRY, UPON ARRIVAL AT THE DESTINATION DOMICILE WILL ROM AT THEIR PERSONAL RESIDENCE (OR APPROPRIATE DOMICILE) FOR AT LEAST 10 DAYS WITHOUT TESTING OR AFTER AN APPROPRIATE RISK ASSESSMENT BY THE FIRST FLAG OFFICER IN THE CHAIN OF COMMAND FOR SEVEN DAYS WITH A NEGATIVE COVID-19 TEST WITHIN 48 HOURS PRIOR TO THE END OF THE SEVEN DAY ROM. SERVICE MEMBERS REQUIRED TO ROM ARE RESTRICTED TO THEIR RESIDENCE AND MUST LIMIT CLOSE \CONTACTS FOR THE DURATION OF ROM. 4.H.1. IMMUNIZED PERSONNEL HAVE NO ROM OR TESTING REQUIREMENTS POST- DEPLOYMENT. 4.H.2. AT THE COMPLETION OF DEPLOYMENT, MILITARY PERSONNEL WILL COMPLETE A POST-DEPLOYMENT HEALTH ASSESSMENT (DD FORM 2796) AND POST-DEPLOYMENT HEALTH REASSESSMENT (DD FORM 2900) IAW REF (D). 5. ALL UNITS, STAFFS AND SHORE COMMANDS. 5.A. HPM. FOLLOW LATEST DOD FORCE HEALTH PROTECTION, CDC AND STATE/LOCAL AREA GUIDANCE TO ENSURE THE HEALTH OF THE FORCE. 5.B. SEE REF (J) NAVADMIN FOR LATEST GUIDANCE ON ADJUSTING HEALTH PROTECTION CONDITIONS AND BASE SERVICES. 5.C. SEE REF (K) NAVADMIN UPDATES FOR LATEST GUIDANCE ON CONDITIONS BASED APPROACHES TO PERSONNEL MOVEMENT AND TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS. 6. CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES. COMMANDERS MUST ENSURE ROM AND MEDICAL SCREENING GUIDANCE GIVEN TO DOD CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES CAN BE APPLIED CONSISTENT WITH APPLICABLE CIVILIAN PERSONNEL LAW, REGULATION, AND POLICY. 6.A. CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL. THIS GUIDANCE DOES NOT ALTER, MODIFY, OR CHANGE THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ANY DOD CONTRACT. COMMANDERS MUST ENSURE ROM AND MEDICAL SCREENING GUIDANCE GIVEN TO DOD CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL CAN BE APPLIED CONSISTENT WITH THE PERTINENT CONTRACT AND APPLICABLE PROCUREMENT LAW, REGULATION, AND POLICY. 7. PROVISION OF CREW HEALTH INFORMATION, TESTING AND QUARANTINE. NCCS WILL MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO COMPLY WITH THE POLICY GUIDANCE IN REF (L) REGARDING HOST NATION COVID-19 QUARANTINE AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS FOR ARRIVING U.S. FORCES AND CIVILIAN PERSONNEL. 7.A. SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY. SOME COUNTRIES MAY REQUEST DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE CREW ONBOARD, INCLUDING TEST RESULTS, PROOF OF VACCINATION, ETC., AS A CONDITION OF ENTRY. IT IS DOD AND DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY POLICY TO PRESERVE THE SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY OF WARSHIPS, NAVAL AUXILIARIES, AND SOVEREIGN IMMUNE AIRCRAFT, INCLUDING PROTECTING CREW INFORMATION, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT POSSIBLE. THE NAVY DECLARATION OF HEALTH (NAVMED 6210/3) IS THE ONLY AUTHORIZED MEANS FOR PROVIDING HEALTH INFORMATION OF THE CREW TO FOREIGN OFFICIALS. PROVIDING ANY INFORMATION BEYOND THE NAVMED 6210/3 AS A CONDITION OF ENTRY EXCEEDS THE U.S. REQUIREMENTS UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW AND CONTRARY TO THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH POSITION. SHOULD A HOST NATION REQUIRE INFORMATION BEYOND THE NAVMED 6210/3 AS A CONDITION OF ENTRY, CONSULT WITH THE APPLICABLE GEOGRAPHIC NAVAL COMPONENT COMMAND (GNCC). SEE REF (M) FOR ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE. 7.A.1. COMMANDING OFFICERS, MASTERS, AND AIRCRAFT COMMANDERS SHALL COMPLY WITH ALL DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN QUARANTINE REGULATIONS FOR PORT ENTRY, AND MAY DOCUMENT SUCH COMPLIANCE ON THE NAVMED 6210/3. COMMANDING OFFICERS, MASTERS, AND AIRCRAFT COMMANDERS SHALL NOT PROVIDE ANY INDIVIDUAL OR COLLECTIVE MEDICAL DATA OR COPIES OF HEALTH RECORDS, NOR ANY SUPPLEMENTARY OR LOCALLY DEMANDED HEALTH FORMS, AND SHALL NOT GRANT ACCESS TO SHIP OR CREW HEALTH RECORDS OR ALLOW THE SAME TO BE SEARCHED OR INSPECTED BY HOST NATIONS. 7.A.2. SERVICE MEMBERS AND THE CREWS OF NAVAL AUXILIARIES WILL NOT SUBMIT TO HOST NATION COVID-19 TESTING AS A REQUIREMENT OF PORT ENTRY. NOR SHALL HOST NATION OFFICIALS BE PERMITTED TO REQUIRE PRODUCTION OF, OR TAKE A PHOTOCOPY OF, SERVICE MEMBERS PROOF OF VACCINATION AS A CONDITION OF PORT ENTRY. 7.A.3. ANY ACTION THAT MAY CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OR POTENTIAL WAIVER OF SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY MUST BE COORDINATED WITH OPNAV N3N5 PRIOR TO ACTION BEING TAKEN. IAW REFS (L) AND (M), AND NAVY POLICY, GNCCS SHALL PROVIDE AS LITTLE INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO MEET MISSION ESSENTIAL OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT TO ANY REQUIREMENT THAT THE U.S. WOULD NOT REQUIRE OF SIMILAR VISITORS (E.G., THE U.S. DOES NOT REQUIRE HN TESTING OR PROOF OF VACCINATION FOR THE CREWS OF VISITING WARSHIPS OR NAVAL AUXILIARIES). GNCCS WILL DETERMINE IN ADVANCE WHICH HOST NATIONS WILL REQUIRE SUCH INFORMATION AND SHIPS MAY BE DIVERTED AS NECESSARY, TO AVOID PROVIDING INFORMATION CONTRARY TO THESE REQUIREMENTS. 7.B. OPNAV STRONGLY DISFAVORS PERMITTING HOST NATION TESTING OF PERSONNEL. HOST NATION TESTING MAY NOT MEET U.S. HEALTH AND SAFETY PROTOCOLS, MAY UNNECESSARILY EXPOSE OUR PERSONNEL TO FOREIGN DATA COLLECTION, MAY PROVIDE UNVERIFIABLE AND/OR INACCURATE RESULTS, AND ESTABLISHES POOR PRECEDENT FOR FUTURE HEALTH EMERGENCIES.WHEN GNCCS DETERMINE THAT ACQUIESCING TO HN TESTING IS NECESSARY FOR MISSION ACCOMPLISHMENT, GNCCS WILL CONSULT WITH BUMED OR FORCE SURGEON TO ENSURE THAT SUCH HN TESTING MEETS ESTABLISHED INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS OF CARE. ADDITIONALLY, ACQUIESCING TO HOST NATION TESTING IS CONTRARY TO U.S. PRACTICE FOR SIMILAR VISITORS. 7.C. PERSONNEL EXITING THE PIER/AIRPORT FACILITY. IF REQUIRED TO EXIT THE PIER/AIRPORT FACILITY AND ENTER THE HOST NATION, THE GNCCS, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COUNTRY TEAM, MAY ASSERT THAT ONLY VACCINATED INDIVIDUALS WILL BE ALLOWED WITHIN THEHOST NATION, BUT MAY NOT PROVIDE THE PERCENTAGE OR TOTAL NUMBER OF THE CREW THAT HAS BEEN VACCINATED. OTHER ALLOWABLE MEASURES INCLUDE SUBMITTING TO A TEMPERATURE SCAN UPON ENTERING/EXITING THE PIER OR THE AIRPORT.

There's a perk for those who have gotten the COVID-19 vaccination. https://fb.watch/5M_Lz0OsnQ/

Sailors still are not getting enough sleep more than three years after the Navy issued a policy to address fatigue in the wake of two deadly collisions blamed in part on sleep deprivation, a government watchdog said. Only about 14% of officers received the recommended seven hours or more of sleep during their most recent deployment, and 67% received five hours or less, the Government Accountability Office found. About 84% said fatigue-related conditions among the crew often or sometimes affect ship operations.

A former US Navy fighter pilot recently shared details and some of her thoughts on an unusual experience almost two decades ago, an encounter with an unidentified flying object nicknamed the "Tic Tac." In mid-November 2004, as the Navy's Nimitz Carrier Strike Group trained off the West Coast in preparation for an upcoming deployment, the destroyer USS Princeton detected several UFOs, also called anomalous aerial vehicles or unidentified aerial phenomena, moving in inexplicable ways around the carrier group.

Sailors who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 can now make some port calls, often go mask-free and deploy without quarantining beforehand, the Navy has announced. “With more than a year operating in the COVID environment, we have gained significant expertise in mitigating and preventing the spread of COVID-19,” Vice Adm. Phillip Sawyer, deputy chief of naval operations for operations, plans and strategy, said in a statement. “Now with vaccines and CDC scientific data, we are able to relax many of the procedures we put in place and still provide for the health protection of the force.”
