The Pentagon said Monday that it is preparing for a “wide variety of scenarios” involving the coronavirus — including a possible pandemic — and feverishly working on a vaccine.

In terms of the deadly virus, “of course we do all kinds of planning in the Department of Defense,” US Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters, according to CNN.

“Pandemic is the worst-case” scenario, he said, but it is among the wide scope of possibilities that the military is prepping for.

As for a potential vaccine to try to stem the global epidemic, Milley said, “Yes, the military labs are working very consistently … working in direct support with Health and Human Services” to develop one.

He added that the virus’ effect on the military has been “very minimal.

“That’s not to say it’s zero, but it’s very, very minimal,” Milley said.

Currently, 89,254 people around the world are confirmed to have the virus — including 86 in the US, according to a tally by Johns Hopkins University. Nearly 3,050 people have died from it, including two in America — both in the Seattle, Washington, area.
