Abstract: Department of Defense Contracting Officers immediately request information from all contractors with employees currently performing in Afghanistan, directing the collection of information identifying individuals that are higher risk for severe illness related to COVID-19, based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance. This information will be used solely to support the force and health protection decisions of the Resolute Support and Operation Freedom’s Sentinel Commander.

Emergency Justfication: The Resolute Support and Operation Freedom’s Sentinel missions #1 priority is protection of the force. This force is comprised of military, civilian and contractors. Based on current modeling of the spread of COVID-19 there is insufficient medical capability to treat all personnel who become infected. Thus, the command needs accurate information as it relates to the population of the force that is considered higher-risk for severe illness, based on CDC guidance, and the impact on the mission should these personnel become infected or directed to leave Afghanistan immediately by the command.
