o Call to Order and Welcome: LCDR Jason Wilken o CPO Report: CAPT John Eckert

• Happy New Year! Resilience is important. Find time to take care of yourself and your family.

• COVID vaccination. Many officers are deployed to hot-zones and are requesting access to the vaccine. It’s been escalated to the DSG and CCHQ to come up with additional guidance in the next couple of days on how officers can request the COVID vaccine if they get deployed.

• Updates to incident action plan: Updates are needed to the current incident action plan from CCHQ, specifically section 4. Two bullets are problematic given current needs. (1) No federal asset to receive vaccine while deployed. (2) no federal asset is to administer the vaccine while deployed. The DSG is aware. Please standby for additional guidance.

• USPHS Commissioned Corps Doctrine. Developed over the last several years, all are encouraged to read the USPHS Commissioned Corps Doctrine, which represents the first full doctrine to define USPHS Commissioned Corps.

• Administration transition. DSG has already met with the incoming administration, including the former and incoming Surgeon General, VADM Vivek Murthy, bringing him up to speed on current, ongoing, and future response activities. The DSG is actively engaged with VADM Murthy and the new leadership team.

• SciPAC activities and the Newsletter. I’d like to congratulate all of you for the high productivity and work being done within the SciPAC, including those officers that work on the Newsletter team. The quality of our Newsletter keeps getting better and I really appreciate your patience with the approval process. We hope to the make clearance process more efficient going forward, so they are reviewed at a much higher level. Thank you for all the good work you do!

o Chair Report: LCDR Jason Wilken • All officers are encouraged to share their COVID-19 response stories via Scientist

Deployment Narratives or our quarterly newsletter, The Scientist Officer. Please contact the Deployment Preparedness Subcommittee or the Visibility Subcommittee to share your story.

• For all officers up for promotion in 2021, be sure to mind the deadlines in the promotions checklist.

• The monthly SciPAC meeting is a great time to log into Secure Area and check your readiness.

• Subcommittees and liaisons, please send your written meeting notes to Executive Secretary LCDR Jamoom on the Friday before each SciPAC monthly meeting. This will allow us to share the meeting minutes with Scientist officers in a timely manner.

• Our SciPAC operations are dependent on the volunteer efforts of Scientist officers. If you have the bandwidth, please reach out to any of our 11 subcommittees to volunteer.

• The Executive Board, our subcommittee chairs, and our liaisons are here to serve you. Please reach out to us if you need help or if you have ideas for supporting Scientist officers.

o Vice Chair Report: CDR Deborah Dee • Nothing significant to report.

Appendix A: Readiness and Deployment Branch (RDB) Updates These are the specific updates from the RedDOG self service homepage for visiability: Readiness Extensions - updates announced during the recent December Town Hall session with additional guidance and clarification: 2020 Periodic Health Update (PHU) Requirements:

If you have not turned in a 2020 PHU, you are NOT required to do Your readiness status and eligibility for promotion are not dependent on a 2020

PHU submission which was due after March 1, 2020 2021 PHU Requirements:

PHU requirements will resume in January 2021 If you have a January birth month, you will have until March 31, 2021 to submit

your PHU If you have made a reasonable effort to get in-person appointments without

success, MAB will accept a PHU with the following components: -- A "virtual" physical examination -- A completed behavioral health survey, and -- A report of a dental examination Updated PHU instructions and forms will be available on the CCMIS website in the near future. APFT & BLS: both will continue to be extended through MAR 1, 2021 readiness check. Both items will be required for submission (at the latest) in March and before the APR 1, 2021 readiness check. APFTs can be completed virtually - please review CCMIS website, under "readiness" tab for additional information and resources. Officers are encouraged to continue making all efforts to complete and submit BLS and APFT readiness items despite continued extensions. There is no need to email either RDB or MAB requesting an extension for PHU, BLS, or APFT during DECEMBER or future months. Promotions eligibility will not be impacted during the PHU, APFT, BLS approved extension period. (Extensions do not include immunizations, professional licensures, weight standard requirements). • Licenses: Officers with professional licensures expiring during AUG-OCT months need to

upload any state specific extensions or renewal verifications via eDOCU and include their current license as one PDF document. The Licensing team will review and update officer files accordingly. To contact the Licensure team, see their email below or on CCMIS website, under "officer support" section.

• Retention Weight Standards: Officers will notice a newly added "Retention Weight Standards" status text box on the Dashboard, referring to compliance or non-compliance with policy as determined per last reported APFT and/or Verified Weight Report (form 7044-1) submission. For any officer who contacted RDB with an inquiry specific to this policy, we will provide responses as we work through the queue. Please do not send daily or multiple emails. In the meantime,

• Any officer outside of weight standards compliance (BMI below 19.0 or greater than 27.5 kg/m2) must review POM 821.66, "Retention Weight Standards" and follow guidelines for timely submission of required documentation. If all required items were submitted by deadlines, current and future readiness status will not be impacted pending adherence with policy instructions.

• Any officer outside of weight standards compliance who failed to submit required documents pertaining to the Retention Weight Standards policy will see their readiness status as "Not Qualified" for the duration of the month. The missing item needs to be submitted before the next month's readiness check to return to "Qualified" readiness status.

• A current quarterly Verified Weight Report (form 7044-1) is due for completion and submission during Oct 1-7, 2020 for officers who remain "non-compliant" with Retention Weight Standards. These officers must continue with quarterly weight report submissions until their next APFT is submitted and their compliance is again re-assessed. Officers who are required to submit quarterly weight reports but fail to do so during the 1st week of October will be identified as "Not Qualified" for the NOV 1 and DEC 1 readiness check.

• Quarterly Weight Reports (7044-1) are due both for completion AND submission in the first week of the quarter precisely. Officers needing to submit this must plan to complete and submit the JAN 2021 quarterly report no later than JAN 7th.

• Late submissions identify the officer as "Not Qualified" for future readiness checks.

• Any officer within weight standards, and "compliant" (BMI between 19.0 - 27.5 kg/m2), as identified per last submitted APFT record, either in 2019 or with a recently renewed 2020 record, have no further requirements until the next APFT or PHU is submitted. Ensure all data fields are completed prior to saving the record, to include: height, weight, BMI, and if needed, Percent Body Fat results.

• Officers that last completed an APFT in 2019 but currently have an APFT extension

waiver due to COVID-19, are covered for this readiness requirement until the waiver expires (see "waiver" section below). However, all required Retention Weight Standards items are still due for anyone outside of weight compliance from last year's APFT record submission (i.e. quarterly weight reports, an updated Weight Management Plan).

Waivers: Instructions for requesting and submitting this is included on the CCMIS website, under "Medical Affairs" section. Officers on maternity-related waivers, please note not all readiness items are waived or extended automatically (i.e. PHU, Td immunization) and officers need to contact MAB directly to address concerns or request additional readiness extensions. Waivers do not appear on the Dashboard but details of any placed waivers can be found within the Self-Service portal, under "waivers" section. Please review as readiness items are due in the month the waiver expires. When a waiver extension is in place for the APFT specifically, officers will be unable to upload that item until the waiver expires. Begin submitting APFTs on 09/03/20.

Deployment Credit: RDB priorities are to continue supporting the current COVID-19 mission and deploy officers. Please be advised that deployment credits will not be finalized until 60-days after we have completed and demobilized all officers who have served on COVID-19 related missions. We will update this page once this process begins. Deployment "On-Call" month schedule: during a Public Health Emergency (PHE), CCHQ does not follow the scheduled "on-call" roster. We are continuing to operate on an "all hands on deck" status until the PHE ends or additional communication is distributed from CCHQ. The courtesy "on-call" email alerts have been disabled until the PHE concludes. Readiness - Report results are manually reviewed for accuracy - if items were submitted, records will be updated to reflect an officer's status. Take time to review your files within Self-Service portal several business days after submitting any readiness item. If there are any errors, please contact the respective team to initiate a review. Per readiness and deployment policies, it is the duty and responsibility of each officer to ensure timely renewal and upload of readiness requirements to maintain compliance.

• Readiness reports are finalized the 1st day of each month. Requirements for readiness are NOT complete until successfully uploaded to either Self-Service or eDOC-U.

Items submitted after the month in which they are due will identify the officer as "Not Qualified". That status will remain for the duration of the month until it is addressed and the next month's readiness report is finalized. 2020 Influenza: Officers should see a "Not Qualified" for projected readiness on their Dashboard in preparation for the JAN 1, 2021 readiness check. The seasonal influenza is due for renewal and submission no later than December 31, 2020 by midnight. PHU: Please visit CCMIS > under "Medical Affairs" and "forms" sections to familiarize yourself with the requirements. Additionally, login to CCLMS to view a ~15-min video outlining new PHU requirements effective JAN 1, 2020. PHU due dates are posted both on the officer dashboard and Self-Service - these are auto calculated based on an officer's birthday. PHU waiver extensions granted during COVID-19 will NOT show up on the dashboard. For any officer with a PHU due in MARCH - OCT, will see a PHU extension waiver on file within the Self-Service portal, under "waivers" section. Deployment Role: Include a primary deployment role within Self Service area; additional roles may be added but at least 1 role must be saved to remain "Qualified" for monthly readiness checks. The request to update demographic information is vital as this information is used to both communicate with and deploy officers efficiently. All officers must immediately take action to review and complete missing information for:

1. Work Phone, Primary Work Email 2. Personal Cell Phone, Personal Primary Email 3. Airport (departure airport for deployment and training purposes) 4. Language(s) spoken 5. Professional Specialties
