Hunter-seeker snatch and grab teams have been activated inside the Unites States as military moves to detain and quarantine anyone suspected of carrying COVID19 or anyone who has had contact with the deadly biological strain

(INTELLIHUB) — The U.S. Defense Department ordered Northern Command (NORTHCOM) on Wednesday to prepare to respond to and mitigate biological threats within the homeland putting emphasis on readiness levels at U.S. and allied installations and public health emergencies.

The order “provides direction to ensure mission assurance and readiness for public health emergencies.” (i.e. it’s a step by step playbook on how to set up and initiate martial law inside the U.S. ahead of a pandemic)

According to Reference F (REF/F/MSGID:DOC/YMD:20171204//) in the order:

MCO 6220.2 Disease Containment Planning which provides guidance to respond to and mitigate biological events with public health emergency implications and aligns organizational roles and responsibilities within the Marine Corps for Disease Containment Planning (DCP) activities.

Additionally, the order reveals that the “current threat of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus has raised concern that this virus could result in a pandemic disease.”

Rhetoric in the order suggests that the DoD is indeed expecting a full-fledged pandemic.
