I want to remind everyone that the United States military is is remains ready and capable of meeting our requirements.

I was tpwhreevend Army Medical Research cutting edge covid19 response and then visited the Army Medical Research institute of Infectious Diseases to learn about its ongoing experimentation and testing.
