I would imagine that since it isn’t FDA approved that they can’t be forced to take it.

That’s just a guess though.

Marines hate vaccines, and needles in general. It is always a pain to make sure they all have the needed shots for deployment. It’s no surprise they decline an optional vaccine when they are extremely low risk from the virus.

Why would they? They’re in tip top shape and not in a susceptible age group. The risks of taking the shot outweigh the benefits

That's weird we didn't have a choice like that in the 1980's you took your shots or else and else wasn't a popsicle and cotton candy either.

It reflects the contempt Democrats have for the military.

They think they can do whatever they want to members of the military, and that it's the service members' own "fault" for volunteering.

You had a more merit-based leadership then, especially on the civilian side.

The military has earned the right to this decision....if they are willing to die for this country, they can make that call, not the government!

I dont believe they made you take a shot for something that was not FDA approved.

Covid "vaccines" are not approved, only authorized for emergency use.

A vaccine has never been a political weapon before. A lot has changed in last 40 weeks, let alone the last 40 years.

I don’t know if “can’t” is technically accurate but that’s the rationale right now. Since it only has emergency fda approval it’s optional, if it gets full approval it probably won’t be.

Because by percentage the Marines is full of more hard assed crackers than the other services. We ain’t buying into all this shite.

The members of the military rarely if ever get to say “no”.
They are given orders and follow the orders.
They were given the choice to take or decline the vaccine.
They capitalized on the rare opportunity to say “no’.
It’s as simple as that.
