Protect personal choice. Let vaccination decisions be up to our service men and women to decide, not the government.
I’d go one step further: we should prohibit ANY employer from requiring vaccination or making vaccination a condition of employment. Termination or harassment of an employee due to vaccine status should be a crime.
vaccine mandates of any kind should really be abolished- especially with a 100% immunity from liability being handed to the manufacturers on a silver platter.
I agree.
And ban schools from requiring it!
I believe that their should be more testing regulations for vaccines, prior to being released to the public. Seeing as this last epidemic may have been man made (im taking no sides). It was released hastily. However, some vaccines should be mandatory, especially if you are in the Department of Defense. For one, you live in close proximity to hundreds if not thousands of humans, and disease can and WILL spread quickly.
Though, Covid-19 happened and we are still seeing the effects, not all vaccines are bad. Especially the basic vaccines.
Basic Vaccines Required for All Service Members
MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella)
Polio Vaccine
Tetanus-Diphtheria-Pertussis (Tdap)
Varicella (Chickenpox)
Hepatitis A and B
Additional Vaccines Required for Deployment
Depending on the deployment location and mission requirements, service members may need additional vaccines:
Anthrax – Required for specific high-risk regions, particularly in the Middle East or in response to potential bioterrorism threats.
Smallpox – Also mandated in certain high-risk areas, often based on the level of threat in a deployment zone.
Japanese Encephalitis – Required for personnel deploying to rural areas in Asia where there is a risk of this mosquito-borne disease.
Meningococcal – Usually for areas with high rates of meningitis, such as parts of Africa.
Rabies – Required for certain regions with a high risk of exposure, particularly in locations with inadequate healthcare infrastructure for post-exposure treatments.
Typhoid – Often required for deployments to areas with unsafe water or food handling practices, especially in parts of Asia, Africa, and Central/South America.
Yellow Fever – Mandated for certain regions, primarily in parts of Africa and South America.
Situational/Additional Vaccines
Influenza (Flu) – An annual requirement for all service members.
COVID-19 – As of recent policy changes, the COVID-19 vaccine is encouraged, although it may not be required across the board; policies may change based on the specific conditions of the mission and destination country.
Absolutely agree. Vaccines altogether should be by choice and not mandated for our military or our children as a requirement to even enter schools.
I think it should be up to the people as someone who went to school for medical management in since, some of the thing’s that are put into different Vaccines are not a safe choice as some can cause other life long health issue’s. As an individual I feel it’s better to do a deeper dive into what’s in each Vaccine how it would honestly effect the people’s health in the nation in the long run and try to find more healthier alternatives when it comes to health issues that comes up. This means turning back to plants that could benefit us in the long-term and not that of Chemicals.
My son was a Marine and told me about a peanut butter shot he got.
He said that he’s gotten a few of them while he was active duty.
This particular one, made him feel dizzy and almost passed out. He said he had an overwhelming feeling of dread and now constantly gets dizzy out of nowhere and has to pull over with a high heart rate.
He also has tumors growing in his stomach and no Dr will help him.
I fully support this and i think our veterans deserve free health care for life.
No.
Our military is meant to be a refined tool that exists outside of social “wokeness” and discourse.
Troops understand that when they sign up. That is why the pay and benefits need to improve IOT reflect the work they are truly doing.
Look up and vote for my Veteran’s Basic Income policy. End the scam that is military service and stop picking from the bottom of the barrel for recruits.
Increase pay. Increase standards. Increase effectiveness
Veteran’s Basic Income.
Joey B, and Kamala, could enact this now. It is Veteran’s Day
I hav just ONE change to make! Get rid of thee last three words! It should be:
Ban Mandatory Vaccines
I’m so sorry to hear that. If you think your son would be open to this they have a service for vax injured people. Look up goldcare .com and that should give you all the information to that. I wish you guys the best.
Thank you so much. I will have him look into it immediately.
Do more research. There isn’t one vaccine that works or has had long term safety testing done.
Our government’s Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) should have the data to tell you everything you need to know about the risks associated with each shot. If you’re worried about picking up sicknesses from being in close quarters with other people, you have the option to take your vaccines if you want them. Again, that should be up to the individual to decide.
I completely agree! Let us as military members make decisions about our own health. Vaccines should not be considered a factor in readiness. Thank you for this policy suggestion!
