The fallout of the military’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate

The military's COVID-19 vaccination mandate is over, but its effects linger. (Senior Airman Dylan Gentile/Air Force)
The new year brought a major victory for thousands of service members who refused the COVID-19 vaccines – and the conservative lawmakers and pundits who backed them. The Pentagon was forced to repeal its coronavirus mandate by a largely-GOP-backed requirement added to the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, signed into law by President Joe Biden in December. But many troops who balked at taking the shots still face uncertain futures.

Are they going to stop all vaccine shots? I will never forget the line of medics administrating shots in Basic Training. They used those damn guns. My arms still hurt,, lol

In Panama we had to get some "extra" shots I was the first one thru the door to get the shot I asked the nurse/Medic if I could have a little fun they said sure. So I screamed and waited a few seconds and walked out the door holding my arm and pretending to be in pain, you should have seen the next 10 guys or so were really pale and not wanting to go next.

Funny how the article does the Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson vaccines were only given emergency use authorization and that those three vaccines were not fully approved by the FDA.
