Gatherings of 50 back on at WPAFB
Col. Patrick Miller authorized a slight loosening of restrictions Wednesday during a Wright-Patterson coronavirus town hall.
WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE — Gatherings of up to 50 people are back on at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, per the March 3 coronavirus town hall by 88
th Air Base Wing Commander Col. Patrick Miller. As the base surges ahead in the fight against COVID-19, low COVID numbers and high numbers of administered vaccines warrant a small loosening of restrictions on the installation.
Wright-Patterson’s numbers of hospitalizations, ICU cases, and COVID-positive cases are trending downward, mirroring state and area numbers, according to the commander. As such, the base is “in the right place to open things up a bit,” Miller said. “We are heading in the right direction.”
