Top Polish general has coronavirus after German conference

Poland's top armed forces generals Jaroslaw Mika took part in a conference on strategic communication involving the "Defender-Europe 20" U.S. army deployment exercises on March 6 in Wiesbaden. The commander of US Army Europe, Lieutenant General Christopher Cavoli, along with several staff members, may have been exposed to the coronavirus during a conference.

WARSAW: One of Poland's top armed forces generals Jaroslaw Mika has tested positive for coronavirus after returning from a military conference in Germany, Poland's Defence Ministry said on Tuesday.

Mika took part in a conference on strategic communication involving the "Defender-Europe 20" U.S. army deployment exercises on March 6 in Wiesbaden, a spokesman for the Polish armed forces said.

On Monday the U.S. Army said the commander of U.S. Army Europe, Lieutenant General Christopher Cavoli, along with several staff members, may have been exposed to the coronavirus during a conference.

According to the U.S. Army Europe press office in Wiesbaden, Cavoli was also at a "Defender-Europe 20" conference in Wiesbaden on March 6.

U.S. Army Europe declined to confirm the two officers were at the same conference.

Mika is the general commander of Poland's armed forces and is one of the central European country's top commanders. The spokesman said his illness had not caused any disruption for the army.

Commander of U.S. Army Europe may have been exposed to coronavirus

The top U.S. Army commander in Europe may have been exposed to the coronavirus, while a Marine who tested positive for it had been working for a defense agency close to the Pentagon, officials said on Monday.

The disclosures show the risks to the U.S. military even as it tries to limit the fallout from the global virus outbreak on the more than a million active-duty troops around the world.

In the case of Lieutenant General Christopher Cavoli, the possible exposure took place during a conference with land force commanders in Europe on Friday in Wiesbaden, Germany. In a photo, Cavoli is pictured sitting next to an unnamed Italian military officer whose face cannot be seen in a military photo of the event https://www.dvidshub.net/image/6129417/land-force-commanders-allied-nato-and-partner-nations-meet-discuss-defender-europe-20.

Reuters reported on Sunday that Italian army Chief of Staff General Salvatore Farina contracted the virus.

The U.S. Army declined to say who may have exposed Cavoli to the virus inadvertently or whether Farina was at the conference.

The Pentagon said seven cases were under investigation and that three active-duty service members so far had tested positive for the virus. Beyond the Marine, they include previously reported cases of a soldier in South Korea and a sailor in Italy.

U.S. officials told Reuters that the Marine worked at the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), which helps oversee foreign military sales and international military educational partnerships. The Marine had returned last month from Ethiopia.

He is being treated at a military hospital at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, in the Washington suburbs. The Marine was living with his family at Marine Corps Base Quantico, which said in an online post that base schools were being closed until Wednesday to allow time for a thorough cleaning.

The base said his family and personnel in contact with him "have been identified and do not show symptoms."

It was unclear whether the DSCA, which is headquartered in Crystal City, Virginia, was taking any precautionary steps since the Marine tested positive for the virus.

He noted that two other companies are also working on two other medicines used for treatment of individuals with the coronavirus symptoms, saying the medication is expected to clean the nose and throat.

The medicines are going to be mass produced after success in the clinical tests and certification by the Food and Drugs Organization, he added.

The official went on to say that the clinical tests have begun since March 5 and will go on for two weeks.

The Iranian Health Ministry said on Monday that since the outbreak of the new coronavirus in the country, 2,394 patients have completely recovered from the infectious disease.
