1
00:00:00,500 --> 00:00:02,583
(whoosh)

2
00:00:06,423 --> 00:00:10,190
- Hi everybody, Mike Holmes
from Air Combat Command.

3
00:00:10,190 --> 00:00:13,620
As you know, the coronavirus
is spreading around the world

4
00:00:13,620 --> 00:00:15,390
and across our country.

5
00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:17,360
It's a highly communicable disease

6
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,140
that can pose serious
symptoms and impacts to us

7
00:00:20,140 --> 00:00:22,410
if we don't take proper precautions

8
00:00:22,410 --> 00:00:23,950
and we all need to do our part

9
00:00:23,950 --> 00:00:27,140
to limit the spread and the impact.

10
00:00:27,140 --> 00:00:28,870
ACC has two goals.

11
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:31,720
The first is to protect
our airmen, their families,

12
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:32,972
and their communities.

13
00:00:32,972 --> 00:00:35,926
And the second is to
preserve combat capabilities

14
00:00:35,926 --> 00:00:38,091
so that we can deter our adversaries

15
00:00:38,091 --> 00:00:41,860
and support combat and
commanders through this crisis.

16
00:00:41,860 --> 00:00:43,610
What do I want you to do?

17
00:00:43,610 --> 00:00:45,450
First, I'd like you to trust your leaders

18
00:00:45,450 --> 00:00:47,910
and follow their instructions.

19
00:00:47,910 --> 00:00:50,120
Each base will have some different rules

20
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,564
and some things will be
different everywhere,

21
00:00:51,564 --> 00:00:55,250
but there are some things that
will be in common everywhere.

22
00:00:55,250 --> 00:00:58,382
That's basic hygiene, follow
the rules on keeping clean,

23
00:00:58,382 --> 00:01:01,794
social distancing to
try to limit the spread,

24
00:01:01,794 --> 00:01:03,566
look out for each other

25
00:01:03,566 --> 00:01:06,880
because your teammates
may have to take actions

26
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,320
to take care of their
dependents if schools close

27
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:12,035
or if someone in their family becomes ill,

28
00:01:12,035 --> 00:01:14,290
and then follow the travel restrictions

29
00:01:14,290 --> 00:01:16,400
that will be laid out by
the Department of Defense

30
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:17,950
and shared with you.

31
00:01:17,950 --> 00:01:20,160
Where should you get your information?

32
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,085
I recommend the Center for
Disease Control website,

33
00:01:23,085 --> 00:01:25,300
the Department of Defense website,

34
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:28,030
and the Air Force website
that's been provided

35
00:01:28,030 --> 00:01:29,120
to share information

36
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,690
and you can find that
information as referenced here.

37
00:01:32,690 --> 00:01:34,010
There are also things you can do

38
00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:36,740
to build and improve
your own immune system.

39
00:01:36,740 --> 00:01:40,207
Drink plenty of water, eat well, exercise,

40
00:01:40,207 --> 00:01:42,426
and get plenty of sleep.

41
00:01:42,426 --> 00:01:45,300
Our country is counting on us.

42
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:47,640
When people are concerned or frantic,

43
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,620
we'll be steadfast, calm, and deliberate.

44
00:01:50,620 --> 00:01:52,903
Let's work together to protect each other,

45
00:01:52,903 --> 00:01:55,201
our communities and our nation,

46
00:01:55,201 --> 00:01:57,250
while we preserve the combat power

47
00:01:57,250 --> 00:01:59,090
that our country depends on.

48
00:01:59,090 --> 00:02:01,943
As always, people first, mission always.
