COVID-19 vaccines are available Monday through Thursday from 0730-1630 at Immunizations to all DoD beneficiaries over the age of 18.

Current as of July 29, 2021

SPECIAL NOTE: 

Team Warren,

DoD released new mask guidance yesterday designed to counter the highly transmissible Delta variant of the Coronavirus. This variant is aggressive and making people more sick than previous versions of the virus. Protecting you is my primary concern and worth wearing a mask. 

We are currently in an area where the transmission rate is considered high. Until our transmission rate decreases below the substantial level, we will wear masks. 

Here are some of the specifics that will guide our implementation:

• If you are alone in your office AND vaccinated, you do not need to wear a mask.
• Fitness Center: Masks are required unless actively working out. 
• Housing and Dorm rooms are exempt from this policy. Mask wear in hallways and common areas is required.
• Outdoors: Masks are not required.
• Non-DoD facilities: (off base stores, restaurants, etc) mask wear is encouraged but not mandatory.
• CFD:  Masks are encouraged but not mandatory because this is an outdoor event. Volunteers must still be vaccinated.

An update to our FRAGORD will be released shortly. 

As nuclear professionals, we value trust and compliance. Our Airmen and civilian teammates are trusted with the world’s most powerful weapons and you daily prove just how trustworthy you are. After only a month in command, I haven’t met all of you yet, but I am very impressed by those I have met and by what you do. I ask that we work together on this. Anger gets us nowhere. Putting on the mask, being respectful to all and carrying on with our professional obligations is who we are. 

CATHERINE V. BARRINGTON, Col, USAF
Commander, 90th Missile Wing

Our 90 MDG continues to vaccinate our military and civilian force and their families. Vaccines are available Monday through Thursday from 0730-1630 at Immunizations. All personnel (military, civilians, and designated base contractors) assigned or attached to F. E. Warren AFB are eligible to be vaccinated. The vaccine is also available in the local community to all personnel IAW CDC age-approved guidelines.

Those personnel who have chosen not to receive the vaccination must understand their risk is higher, and in most cases, must take extra precautions identified in this FRAGORD as well as other military, federal, state, and local mandate and guidelines.

 UNVACCINATED PERSONNEL

Unvaccinated service members and civilian employees will take extra precautions to ensure they protect themselves, others, and the mission from detrimental effects to their higher risk of infection. At all times, service members will strictly comply with CDC, federal, state, local, and military policies and directives for protection against COVID-19. While on base, civilian employees will strictly comply with CDC, federal, state, local, and military policies and directives for protection against COVID-19, and are highly encouraged to comply at all other times.

• Strictly follow, at all times, current CDC guidelines for wear of masks, social/physical distancing, and personal hygiene.
• Will not participate in contact sports or those sports in which the physical distancing standard cannot be maintained. Contact sports are sports in which the participants necessarily come into bodily contact with one another. For example, but not all-inclusive, are sports such as football, rugby, soccer, basketball, martial arts, fighting (boxing, UFC, MMA, etc.), wrestling, and hockey. Sports that are not contact sports, where physical distancing cannot be maintained are, but not all-inclusive, sports such as volleyball. When in doubt, contact your unit commander for guidance.

  • There is no formal form; e-mail coordination will suffice. This is mandatory for all Active Duty members; currently requested and highly encouraged for all civilians. This requirement also includes all occasions where our chaplains minister / volunteer off-base, and where there is group or individual support for an off-base event or activity.
