According to a Navy spokesperson, there are currently 4,865 total crew members on the ship, meaning around 13 percent of the crew have now tested positive for COVID-19.
The ship arrived at a port in Guam in March and has since been severely impacted by the coronavirus.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time," the USS Theodore Roosevelt's commanding officer Capt. Carlos Sardiello said in a statement."Our number one priority continues to be the health and well-being of all members of the Theodore Roosevelt Strike Group and we remain steadfast in our resolve against the spread of the virus."
