One Airman died. Two are hospitalised. It was not the "wrong formulation". Multiple strains are in circulation at anyone time. Preliminary examination of VE indicates it met the threshold of 40% or more reduction in hospitalisations. 6 years on from watching "Dr" John Campbell Youtube videos (before he started grifting), one would think and learnt the difference between a sterilising vaccine and a non-sterilising vaccine. The vast majority of vaccines are non-sterilising, which means they do not prevent infection, but they prevent illness. Hegseth allowed the opt out of the vaccine on the grounds their body, faith and convictions are not negotiable. Sounds like beardos are back on the menu. While flu is described as "seasonal" and there are biological structural reasons why its virulance is facilitated in colder weather, its actually in circulation all year round. In varying degrees around the country. There's a nasty one doing the rounds in Eastern Canada right now, in the middle of a tri-country sporting tournament that still has a month to run. Troops should not be given the choice which vaccines they will take, unless they can demonstrate religious conviction. And if so, then they need to reconsider their career, like what Hegseth told the Mormons. These are mostly recruits. As part of Basic, you get your shots. The only reason the NHS targets the autumn for shots is the management of resources (hospital capacity), same in the US. If you fall seriously ill, and you chose to not take the vaccine, then you should be medically discharged without pension. Essentially self-inflicted injury. FAFO. It seems 60% of new recruits into the US military are gullible spineless crybabies. Good for the 35% who manned up and rolled up their left sleeve, and the 5% who rolled up their right sleeve. The previous policy has now been reinstated. Vaccines are now mandatory.
