This seems as if it’s coming STRAIGHT from the CHICOM leader of their military. ONLY OUR SWORN ENEMIES WOULD WANT TO INFLICT THIS ON OUR MOST LETHAL AND SKILLED SERVICE GROUP.
Can we get the title fixed? Lloyd Austin is the Secretary of Defense, not the Secretary of the Navy.
Fine. Send the idiot a bill for their services.
I never would make 23 years in the service now. No friggen way. And I retired this century!
Another government that has the mindset to cripple, deconstruct the U.S. military comes out and steps forward. They have already done so to the MAGA government and are now imagining the finishing touches. It is uphill from here folks, with a heavy load.
I wonder what the real reason for this heavy push to get everyone vaccinated against a virus that does not seem much more deadly then the yearly flu.
The US is at war with its own Navy SEALs.
Just doc their pay.
Some of these bureaucrats heads need to start showing up on pikes.
0.0006% mortality rate???
Time for someone to.....
That was not in the contract they signed. Also, there is no mandate. Just talk of a mandate. The media and the dems acted as if biden had made a mandate. He didn’t.
This would be unlawful.
What a STUPID thing to declare. First of all, its an empty threat. Secondly, this political, bureaucratic arsehole is destroying one of the main things that makes the SEALS special - trust and cohesiveness
This one is definitely going to court.
“Policy. In order to maximize readiness, it is the policy goal of the U.S. Navy to achieve a fully vaccinated force against the persistent and lethal threat of COVID-19.”
Lethal to whom?
What is the % of the Navy personnel who are among the older age groups &/or comorbidity groups for whom a Covid infection may be lethal, more so than the younger age groups and groups without comorbidity factors like obesity, systemic heart or respiratory conditions or diabetes?? Therefore, just how “lethal” is Covid within the military compared to the general population?
HOWEVER, all that said, the vaccinations for the seasonal flu have been mandatory in the U.S. military for some time.
HOWEVER STILL, the one difference may be honest questions that are derived from honest concerns related to the distinct differences in the types of vaccines, between those for the seasonal flu versus those for the Wuhan Virus.
All of these so called “new job requirements” being applied in order for you to keep your position, after people have already been employed, or enlisted in those same positions for years, is nothing but a bunch of bull$hit. If it wasn’t required prior to your being enlisted or hired for a job, how legal is it to require them now, after years of service? It makes my blood boil.
Lets just put a made up price tag on it Joe. F J B.
They can’t do that and they know it. 😆
