Joseph Butterfield told Military Times. “His workspace has been cleaned by a Pentagon response team and a thorough contact investigation is underway to mitigate risk and preserve the health of our Marines, civilians, and families.”

His last day at the Pentagon was March 13.

The Department of Defense (DOD) said his workspace was cleaned by a response team.

The Pentagon is investigating the Marine’s contact impact before his diagnosis.
