“-they should not have their rights stripped from them because they volunteered to serve.”

Did you serve?

I know when I was in I received untold numbers of shots. And it was not possible to decline.

A good number of times we didn’t even know what we were getting.

I’m astounded the Pentagon has not ordered this already and are awaiting POTUS directive.

No, none of them has a right to decline this shot. They are property of the US Government.

You have no idea of what you are talking about.

Experimental vaccines based on mRNA technology with a horrible record of failure, and concealed risks (e.g., Informed consent disclosure to vaccine trial subjects of risk of COVID-19 vaccines worsening clinical disease - PubMed (nih.gov) ) should not be mandated according to the Nuremburg Code of 1947.

According to The Nuremberg Code (1947), “The great weight of the evidence before us to effect that certain types of medical experiments on human beings, when kept within reasonably well-defined bounds, conform to the ethics of the medical profession generally. The protagonists of the practice of human experimentation justify their views on the basis that such experiments yield results for the good of society that are unprocurable by other methods or means of study. All agree, however, that certain basic principles must be observed in order to satisfy moral, ethical and legal concepts:

1. The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment.

2. The duty and responsibility for ascertaining the quality of the consent rests upon each individual who initiates, directs, or engages in the experiment. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may not be delegated to another with impunity.
3. The experiment should be such as to yield fruitful results for the good of society, unprocurable by other methods or means of study, and not random and unnecessary in nature.

4. The experiment should be so designed and based on the results of animal experimentation and a knowledge of the natural history of the disease or other problem under study that the anticipated results justify the performance of the experiment.

5. The experiment should be so conducted as to avoid all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury.

6. No experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason to believe that death or disabling injury will occur; except, perhaps, in those experiments where the experimental physicians also serve as subjects.

7. The degree of risk to be taken should never exceed that determined by the humanitarian importance of the problem to be solved by the experiment..  

8. Proper preparations should be made and adequate facilities provided to protect the experimental subject against even remote possibilities of injury, disability or death.
9. The experiment should be conducted only by scientifically qualified persons. The highest degree of skill and care should be required through all stages of the experiment of those who conduct or engage in the experiment.
10. During the course of the experiment the human subject should be at liberty to bring the experiment to an end if he has reached the physical or mental state where continuation of the experiment seems to him to be impossible.

11. During the course of the experiment the scientist in charge must be prepared to terminate the experiment at any stage, if he has probable cause to believe, in the exercise of the good faith, superior skill and careful judgment required of him, that a continuation of the experiment is likely to result in injury, disability, or death to the experimental subject.

Nothing astounding about it. It's an experimental treatment, with almost zero testing done to it. Legally, they can't force a single person to get the injection. Furthermore, contrary to what you think, service members are not mindless automatons. They have every right to decline illegal orders. In fact, unless things have changed since I was in, they have a duty to question and deny such orders.

[GMThrust]

Just like none of them can claim conscientious observer?
How would you then handle reservists? With your hard line stance? There’s always a “waiver”.

[Jan_Sobieski]

I served 8 years, 4 as enlisted, 4 as officer. This vaccine BS is out of control. They had no right to give us experimental vaccines, yet they did with threats of court marshal. So, you believe our soldiers, airmen, sailors, and marines are guinea pigs?

Thanks for the Barracks Lawyer point of view.

“No, none of them has a right to decline this shot. They are property of the US Government.”

HAHAHAHAAA!!! Yeah, no.
You forget, those shots were FDA validated shots. This is not as clearly described in the original post.

Hell, even the Anthrax shots were FDA validated shots.
