COVID-19

[Treetop Flyer]

Fascinating news. I’m sure everything is fine.

“A former senior FDA leader told Endpoints that they’re departing because they’re frustrated that CDC and their ACIP committee are involved in decisions that they think should be up to the FDA. The former FDAer also said he’s heard they’re upset with CBER director Peter Marks for not insisting that those decisions should be kept inside FDA. What finally did it for them was the White House getting ahead of FDA on booster shots.”

In a major blow to vaccine efforts, senior FDA leaders stepping down

Two of the FDA's most senior vaccine leaders are exiting from their positions, raising fresh questions about the Biden administration and the way that it's sidelined the FDA. Marion Gruber, director of the FDA's Office of Vaccines Research & Review and 32-year veteran of the agency, will leave...

Isn’t the executive supposed to dictate arbitrary untested medical policy?

2021-2022 NAVY MANDATORY COVID-19 VACCINATION AND REPORTING POLICY

It's out. Applies to all active component, SELRES, and IRR service members. 120 90 days from today must be complete/"Fully Vaccinated". Sounds like there is an extremely limited and time-sensitive route for medical and religious waivers to be approved.

Edit: Sorry active duty is 90 day window, the rest of us have a 120 day window

Whoa… I bet we will see a metric ton of IRR noncompliance.

Finally, this should end the scourge of scaryvirus that has been devastating our military for almost two years.

I wonder what other persistent threats to health and readiness they'll mandate away next.

Imagine if the DOD took mental health and physical fitness as seriously as they've taken the rona. Shit, we could have just banned motorcycles last year and been better off.

That sounds familiar for some reason but I can’t quite put my finger on it. Meanwhile one current CO on this website: “I just want my sailors to live”.

Maybe the DoD is using it as a force shaping tool…like the PFA. ? Maybe some more command spots will open up, and promotion rates will skyrocket? ?

PFA eliminates fatties. Is the intent to eliminate critical thinkers?

And what about previously having COVID…. Every single study continues to show higher and longer lasting immunities than the jab…….

Not all anti-vaxxers are critical thinkers…..do you need examples?

The PFA that we haven’t taken since the Fall of 2019? That one?

Meanwhile, in their infinite wisdom, the Navy closed the gyms on base and made everyone sign a page 13 saying they wouldn’t go to gyms off base that were open or engage in recreational sports. Weren’t even allowed to go running on the beach. So, yeah. I’m sure the PFA is going to go great whenever it gets turned back on. Oh yeah, locker rooms were only open for four hours a day when the gym opened back up. Because of covid. And masks required unless actively using cardio equipment. So while lifting, must wear mask. All courts closed because of close contact. Share a cockpit with a dude for several hours and want to play racquetball with him afterwards? Not allowed. Social distancing requirements. If you had been trying to come up with policies to make people NOT want to hit the gym I don’t think you could have done any better.

I didn’t claim all anti vaxxers are critical thinkers. Do you need to go read it again?

Follow up question: are you about to lock the thread again?

Any progress from the PM conversation after you included webmaster?

That’s how I read it…maybe dumb it down for me….
