Officials are increasingly certain the coronavirus outbreak aboard aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt was sparked by flight crews, not a port visit

That view comes as officials work to find the cause of an outbreak that forced the aircraft carrier to interrupt a deployment in Asia and divert to port in Guam, where hundreds of crew members, including its former commander, are in quarantine.
