40% refusal rate in Marine Corps

quote:
The military cannot make the vaccines mandatory now because they have only emergency use authorizations from the Food and Drug Administration, meaning service members who are required to receive a series of other vaccinations have the option of declining shots to protect against Covid-19.

Officials say most of the vaccine hesitancy stems from concerns about the speed at which the vaccines were developed and fears over long-term effects.


Well, I'm anticipating a mandate as soon as the vaccines are fully certified. And if the military brass is uncomfortable with that, I hope the C-in-C begins to replace them.

Don has surgery on April 23rd. Everyone that would take him, except me, is traveling.
Then I learned that my brother's funeral is the 23rd of April.
Tennessee is one of those state's with a high rate of refusing the vaccine. They fight wearing masks.
Family members are no exception.
I will be taking Don to the surgery with few regrets.
