記者林彥臣／綜合報導
美軍與全國各地醫護與百姓一樣，面臨日益蔓延的新冠肺炎病毒（COVID-19）大流行，現在美軍確診病例分布於41州、超過100個基地之中。但是，軍事領導人也在努力在公開透明和軍事機密之間尋求平衡。
根據美國媒體《新聞周刊》（News week），美國國防部統計，有2120名穿制服的男女兵新冠病毒檢測呈陽性，其中美國海軍確診最多，其次是陸軍，接著是空軍和海軍陸戰隊，在軍事部門中工作的文職人員是僅次於制服人員受創的第二大族群，接下來依序是軍眷，以及軍事設施中的私人承包商。

五角大廈對這些數字採取保密的態度，旨在讓人們對健康與戰備狀態的恐懼能夠有所節制，但是這反而增加了人們的懷疑並引發了爭議。
共和黨眾議員金津格（Adam Kinzinger）接受《新聞周刊》訪問指出，「我認為軍方應該按照各基地公開發布確診數字。」
