What type of discharge should I expect for refusing the covid vaccine?

Administrative, general under honorable conditions.

Kidding me, I got all 7 anthrax shots in the 90s, who really knows exactly what that was! I was on an aircraft carrier that in the Persian Gulf and one or a few people did the same thing about anthrax vaccination, my XO put them in MOPP 3 every day until they were discharged and flown off the carrier. Since he couldn't assure their safety and security, he adjusted to the mission, hahahaha... Btw it was about 20 days in MOPP 3!

There has been a lot of mis information, conspiracy theories and making the whole COVID pandemic and subsequent vaccines. The vaccine is very safe and has no common side affects that could adversely affect your health. Please consider carefully before you throw away your military career and end up with a less than honorable discharge for nothing.
I'm an RN with over 40 years of experience a lot of that was in the military. I was on the sending and receiving end of many vaccines and some medical studies. Now at 70 I'm healthy and happy. I have bad hearing caused by the Army because of high noise environments. But nothing from vaccines

Specialist, I would check, on your own, with JAG/ Military lawyer your options. You could use religious exemption but most likely it will not be granted. If you have been already been infected and can have a blood titer to show you possess the COVID antibodies then under AR 40-562, Table C-1 code MI ( Evidence of immunity (for example, by serologic antibody test ); documented previous infection (for example, chickenpox infection); natural infection presumed). Otherwise, refer to paragraph 2-6 of AR 40-562 for exemptions.
But expect the hammer to come down hard against you.

Does the type of discharge really matter? There is a cost of making every decision in life, do what you can afford. If the reason for not taking the shot is strong enough, then any discharge is acceptable. I'm retired and took the vaccine, after all I had over my career, I couldn't see the down side.

I think the old Big Chicken Dinner would be the way to go.

Im against vaccine mandates, except in the military, where readiness trumps personal choice.

I would get the poke and move on. During my time we had to get smallpox, anthrax, annual flu shots. My vaccine card read like a novel.

General discharge. Taking the vaccine protects your brothers and sisters serving with you!

The kind you get for disobeying a lawful order.
