[00:00:19]The national quarantine unit is the only federally supported uh facility in the nation that provides this level of uh services. There are 20 spaces in the quarantine unit and we're making preparations to receive the uh the 19 uh passengers, US citizens who will be repatriated. Uh the quarantine unit enjoys a outstanding facility that's designed to limit uh the spread of of the pathogen that we're monitoring for.

[00:00:42]All of these uh passengers will be monitored for symptoms. They're all well at this time and will be coming to us for monitoring.

[00:00:49]>> Quarantine unit is the place where you put people when you're observing them where they may get disease but the vast majority in general do not go on to develop disease. So to be so if they were to end up in the bioontainment unit that would mean that they already are showing signs and symptoms of being sick. So um we welcomed 15 um passengers to the quarantine unit early this morning. Um one uh passenger did go to the bioontainment unit. The 15 that were welcomed here um were in good shape.

[00:01:20]They were in good spirits. They definitely uh were tired and uh needed some rest. So, we did a quick assessment.
