Kerry Watson adjusts a metabolic testing mask on Michael Crossett, both Army Wellness Center health educators, before beginning his assessment. Watson is learning how to use the equipment to run manual assessments. The staff recently received HEPA filters for the mask which allowed them to resume metabolic testing without a risk of coronavirus transmission.
