“2700 religious waver requests,”
I guess there are not many religious people in our Armed Forces anymore. 2700 is a very low number.
You can't measure one's faith by whether they are vaccinated, nor if they request a waiver.
Religious exemptions for vaccines are extremely rare for all services. I saw medical exemptions all the time, but in 30 years, never saw an approved religious exemption. Telling your CO that you have "sincerely held religious beliefs" against this vaccine doesn't go over well when you have never had a problem with other vaccines before.
