Joint Region Marianas Commander Rear Adm. John Menoni said sailors from the USS Theodore Roosevelt will begin rotating back to the ship this week.
"This is the next big milestone in our mission to get the ship safely back out to sea and defense of our nation," he said.
The whole crew of the ship has been tested with 833 positives and 4,105 negatives, he said. There have been 112 sailors who have recovered, he said.
There are a small number of tests still pending, he added.
As of Monday, there were two sailors at the Naval Hospital Guam being treated for COVID-19 symptoms, with none in the intensive care unit, Menoni said.
