Navy Reserve COVID Vaccinations by October

[bubblehead]

Wow, couldn’t have told based off of your kool-aid chugging posts. Do you walk around your day job demanding to see people’s vaccination records as well? Or just at the NOSC?

I don't demand anything and don't drink any Kool Aid. In the Reserve the vaccine is a requirement. You either comply or you don't comply.

Pro-tip: maybe instead of relying on your competition to get adsep’d out in order to get promoted, try focusing your efforts on making your record more competitive instead.

I am competitive but am tired of people complaining and wasting time over this nothing burger: either get the vaccine or an exemption or leave, just like with everything else we have to do.

It's not that difficult and you have recourse.

And I’m tired of people complaining about people complaining.

Not hard to just let other people alone about their own medical decisions.

Trust me, if you’re that competitive you have nothing to worry about. There’s absolutely no reason to wish ill will upon your brothers and sisters in arms.

It's not your decision: you are in the military.

FFS, no one here is bitching and moaning about having to get the flu shot every year are they? Where is the up roar?

FFS, does the flu shot cause myocarditis in young men?

The influenza vaccine is associated with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), stroke, myocardial infarction, Chronic Inflammatory Disseminated Polyneuropathy, Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM), optic neuritis, Bell’s palsy, encephalopathy, and encephalitis..

I mean, I f*cking shocked we haven't lost half the force over this yearly requirement...

A Paper Linking COVID-19 Vaccines to High Risk of Myocarditis Has Been Withdrawn

A preprint study first uploaded to MedRxiv that claimed a 1 in 1,000 risk of contracting myocarditis from a COVID-19 vaccination has been withdrawn due to miscalculations.

MedRxiv is a website that publishes studies that have yet to be peer-reviewed, according to Reuters.

That must be the paper that these countries used to make their decision then?

Finland joins Sweden and Denmark in limiting Moderna COVID-19 vaccine

Not a clue, you asked if the flu vaccine causes issues. It does in some people, yet no one here has raised a stink about it or the other vaccines we are required to get.

All vaccines have side effects in a subset of the population.

All medicines have side effects in a subset of the population.

The flu shot is a stupid requirement. That’s why I don’t get the flu shot.

Do you have a medical / religious exemption, or are you no longer on active duty or Reserve?

I just don’t get it. So far the Marine Corps hasn’t crumbled due to a lawful order being egregiously ignored

And when they do? Are you going to resign your commission in protest?

I mean, there is MARADMINS 462/21 floating around...

Based on guidance received from higher, they expect that nearly all religious waivers will be denied.


I think you're vastly overestimating the number of people who will refuse the vaccine after the exemption process has run its course. I've seen data on numbers of exemption seekers from a number of geographic regions. All are well below 1%.

Biden isn't going to change his stance.

I've heard the same thing from senior O's too.

and for those asking about antibodies testing because natural immunity is better than the vaccines..."The juice isn't worth the squeeze." from a senior medical O.

Seems to be a reservist.

I missed a flu shot my first year as a reservist due to forgetfulness on my part. It did catch the attention of my HMs, but I never got in trouble for it.
