    You have to get to the fight in the best shape possible first.

    I am not worried about getting COVID so the vaccine risks out weigh the risk of getting sick.

    It's my battle and I don't care who else gets the jab.

    Which would mean having a strong immune system as well, I expect.

    That's generally the view of the survivors, not so much the ones who are dead from it.

    If everyone fought that battle we would lose the war.

    It looks like there is an FDA approved COVID vaccine and has been since August 23, 2021 according to the FDA website.

    So the US government is not telling the troops that they have to have the vaccine… it’s just saying you can’t join us if you haven’t had it? That’s not so bad is it?

    If I may be allowed to steal Travelers link from post 1301 on page 66 where the info is dated February 2, 20022....
    https://www.army.mil/article/253681...ration_of_covid_19_vaccination_order_refusers

    This link explains that as of now, even Batallion Commanders have been given a general discharge for refusing the vaccination.

    Respectfully I say to you: Thus your judgement about refusing to accept volunteers being "not so bad" holds true in that an applicant would know ahead of time, thus it would not be so bad, if they knew ahead of time.

    However, according to this authority in the link, it seems like either take your licks or hit the bricks. Get vaccinated or get a general discharge.

    You can have a strong immune system without vaccines. I tested positive for COVID twice and had no symptoms either time.

    They might have had weak immune systems.

    Why? If you are vaccinated you are safe, right?

    that’s what I thought… but when @Traveller said… What they are doing now is not forcing the vax but denying re-enlistment to anyone that is not vaccinated.

    I thought he was saying that now you just can’t join if you’re not jabbed?

    I did not post that link.

    Officers fall under a different type of contract than enlisted Soldiers. Enlisted have to re-enlist every few years until they hit 10 years in service then they go indefinite. Officers can resign their commission or be forced out at any point unless they owe time for their education.

    Re-enlistment is someone already in service extending their service.
    Enlistment is someone joining for the first time.

    There are more serious things out there than Covid. You said you wouldn't have any sort of vaccine. Makes no sense.

    It's a ridiculous assumption that all the people that died had weak immune systems. But for anyone who does, it's a good reason to get vaccinated.

    I will not have any vaccines ever again. Simple.

    I think you missed my point. Perhaps deliberately.

    Important point, so whereas the NHS staff would have just had to go, there and then... the way the US military are actually doing it is via their re-enrolment schedule. Seems like a weakened stance on the matter to me and might leave them open to legal action if they back pedal... but have already ruined someone’s career by not re-enlisting them because if it?
