Captain Brett Crozier of the USS Theodore Roosevelt was relieved of his duty on April 2nd, 2020. A naval officer for over a quarter of a century, he did what he was told and left with grace. His sailors were now forced to handle the COVID-19 crisis alone.

The disease spread rapidly throughout the USS Theodore Roosevelt, where nearly 700 crew members tested positive. Captain Brett Crozier should have been with his crew to help guide them in this trying time.
Through it all, Rob Wittman did nothing. He never commended Captain Brett Crozier on over 25 years worth of fighting for his country. He never expressed gratitude for protecting his crew by highlighting the severity of the issue. He never even said "Thank you for your service".

1/n Today is day 28 away from wife and daughter. The first half of this separation was spent as leukemia attending @sloan_kettering for both #COVID19 and non-COVID hospitalized patients before cohorting strategies began and while guidelines for stewardship of #PPE were in flux
2/ We continued to give world class care to our patients, but that meant high risk exposures to my team and myself. Friends and colleagues with cough or other concerning symptoms were sent immediately for testing thanks to the amazing laboratory medicine dept efforts by @EBabady
3/ Many healthcare workers were found to be positive and went home with a range of disease severity and symptomatology. One thing was clear--our exposure risks were just as much from each other as from the patients. #HeroesOfCovid19
