Goodfellow has sustained additional confirmed cases of coronavirus, and our number of symptomatic service members is on the rise. The health and safety measures Goodfellow has had in place since March are now more critical than ever to contain the spread of COVID-19 in our workforce and our city. We have been preparing for this for months, and each unit and leadership team has sanitization and mitigation plans in place to ensure the health and safety of this wing.
