A US warship has been quarantined at sea for over 2 months and has been unable to make a port call due to an outbreak of a viral infection similar to mumps.
25 sailors and Marines aboard the USS Fort McHenry warship have been diagnosed with a disease which has symptoms similar to the mumps, according to US military officials.
The US military had not disclosed about the outbreak until news networks inquired about it. The illness first broke out in December, with the most recent case being reported on March 9.
"None of the cases are life-threatening and all have either already made or are expected to make a full recovery," said the Fifth Fleet in a statement.
All 703 military personnel aboard the ship have received measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) booster vaccinations, according to the US Navy's Fifth Fleet headquartered in Bahrain.
The ship is currently operating in the Persian Gulf region and military medical officials are assessing when it may be deemed medically safe to make a port call.
A US military official told news network that when there are major disease outbreaks,
a decision may be taken to halt port visits until 30 days after the last reported illness due to varying incubation periods.
But the Fort McHenry did make a port call in early January in Romania when it was in the Black Sea before traveling back through the Mediterranean and into the Middle East.
The ship includes elements of the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit. Since the initial case was detected on December 22, 24 of the 25 patients have returned to duty.
After they became ill, the patients were quarantined and treated in the ship's medical facility. Living and work spaces were disinfected.
None of the personnel had to be medevaced off the ship and all are expected to make a full recovery.
However, a military medical team specializing in preventative medical care is expected to deploy in the coming days to make an assessment if further steps may be needed, according to the official.
The ship, which carries Marines to perform amphibious warfare duties did have some of its scheduled training modified to deal with the outbreak's impact.

As you can see all personnel, 100% were vaccinated with the MMR Vaccine and yet they developed symptoms that are similar to the Mumps disease. So can we now assume that all those fully vaccinated staff and employees on this vessel got their disease from the MMR Vaccine? The Mumps like disease they developed after their vaccinations were 'non-life threatening', yet our doctors and the lying mainstream media keeps saying that everyone will die if they caught Measles.
You know all this fear that the mainstream media, doctors, hospitals and the CDC and AMA is pushing is so that they can offload all their disease creating vaccines to the unsuspecting populations around the world. The more ill you get from their vaccines, the more prescription drugs, surgeries and deadly Cancer treatments they can sell to you thus making you and your family, customers for life with the medical industry.
By the way, if you don't already know, some patient have developed tumors and leukemia after being vaccinated.
Google SV40 virus and the Nagalase Enzyme. You'll be shocked that they had this in vaccines in the early days and gave millions of people Cancer but covered up the truth.
Only believe half of what you hear from anyone and the rest, do your own research.
We are taught as children to listen to authority figures like teachers and doctors, but little does the average joe on the street know that it may be these very people who want to keep control over us that our school systems are so corrupt.
We even have teachers that have not been vetted and are pedophiles themselves, guess how safe your kids will be?
Stay safe everyone.
All that is within this post is not medical advice as I am NOT a doctor. This post is just my own opinion. Please always do your own research.
