The spouse, who is a U.S. citizen, is currently in isolation at her off-base residence as directed by USFK medical personnel.
She last visited Camp Humphreys on March 31.

USFK remains at risk level “high” peninsula-wide and is implementing all appropriate control measures, including a declared Public Health Emergency on March 25, as prudent decisions to protect the force and stop the spread of COVID-19.
