So I realize both of these topics have been discussed elsewhere but after seeing the White House (side note: I love how they say “White House” and not “the president”) is contemplating making covid vaccine mandatory one can’t help but wonder the “unintended” consequences.
so they make the vaccine mandatory, well kind of, they tried this with experimental vaccines in the gulf war with some things from first hand accounts I’ve heard. Those soldiers/ marines said they were threatened with UCMJ but nothing came of refusal.
so let’s say you’re specialist snuffy and you run miles every week, ruck like GI joe and go to the gym for fun. Covid sounds like an old people’s problem, not something captain America gets. So command lines everyone up and says you need to sign a form to accept the vaccine but your not really hip with .gov’s experimenting on soldiers so you refuse.
you will be berated and threatened but you still say no and probably quote a few regs since the local e-4 mafia and barracks lawyers have already been reading up on this.
now what? UCMJ? Separation?
I don’t see how they can UCMJ you for this personally, but more importantly what are the mid term implications of this. Do all the R service members refuse and get separated? Are we left with a military that overwhelmingly drank one political factions kool aid?
do a whole bunch of people ETS at first opportunity after seeing the very little bit of free will they have being subverted? I know someone will come along and say the vaccine is safe but I’m fairly certain there are some human rights conventions against using people as experiments against their will.
make no mistake about it, this is all an experiment, if it wasn’t they wouldn’t have waived the ability to sue for death and damages in the vaccine court.
