Nearly 40% of Marines have declined Covid-19 vaccine

Part of the problem with getting people on board is the goalposts are constantly shifting.

The problem is many in our modern society are acting like children. You people expect the experts to easily hand you all the answers. The reality is no one knows where the goalposts are. We are constantly adjusting, trying to find the best solution.

Stopping the virus [if that’s even possible] is something we can look at after we get this economy opened up ALL THE WAY.

The fact remains we cannot force the rest of the world to open their economies to us, if we are not even trying to get this under control. Without the rest of the world, our economy will be shit.

The man’s mind changes like the weather in March.

Are you really claiming that Fauci is controlling all the countries on earth? You are desperate to find someone to blame, and have picked Fauci. It makes no sense.

Facts on the ground change, and so reactions to those facts change. An example is the last thing the UK wanted to do was shutdown schools, but they had to, because the facts on the ground changed. Fauci had absolutely nothing to do with that.

I guess I should just be glad that you are not blaming the Jews, but I think we all know that is just a matter of time.

You are literally preparing to fail. The military does not work like that. To avoid preparing to fail, they avoid failing to prepare. They are preparing in case voluntary vaccination is not enough. It may well be enough, in which case this preparation will help them with future contagious diseases. AND THERE WILL BE FUTURE CONTAGIOUS DISEASES!!!



If the military worked that way, then soldiers would do whatever they wanted for themselves, and it would no longer be a military. It would just be a bunch of people doing whatever would help themselves survive.

A 50 year old Air Force colonel with high blood pressure could just stop showing up to work. There would be no court martial for dereliction of duty. Or he could show up to work in a Grateful Dead t-shirt. Or he could decide to work for the Chinese Air Force.



trump failed to supply the Covid-19 test kits he promised for the vaccine trials. There is no way to have a double blind test, with placeboes now, and the more indirect tests take far more time. In other words, it will very possibly take years to really understand the contagion of Covid-19 in partially vaccinated populations.



Life is not fair, and the military is definitely not fair. You have a problem with that, cry to your mother. The rest of us literally do not care.

It was not fair that people had to get vaccinated against Smallpox, putting their lives as risk, so we could wipe out Smallpox, and people like me did not have to get the vaccine. It is not fair that porn stars can not be porn stars, just because they have HIV. It is not fair that children get cancer and die..... WHINE, WHINE, WHINE!!! No body cares.

And you know is is not fair that my uncle was killed in the Korean War. It is not fair he was drafted to be in the army. It is not fair so many young, healthy people are killed in wars. Worse yet, they are forced to fight in those wars.

It is time for you to grow up.

Is there any way to stay socially distanced from the Covid scolds lol? Can we send them off to an island somewhere?

If you don’t want to be put at risk from the unvaccinated—get vaccinated. Why is that such a difficult concept to grasp? It’s not my responsibility to protect the vulnerable when they can protect themselves with a vaccine.

It’s my body and I’ll decide what risks I’m going to take with it and when or if I want to take them. The same *rights* should be afforded young men in the military. And no, these ‘vaccines’ aren’t like flu shots. Only the J&J shot is like a traditional vaccine and it’s having some issues with causing the same sort of multifocal thrombosis as severe Covid cases.

So go get your shot and go on living in your Covid World while the rest of us get on with our lives.

[Walt]

at that point, they should give every service member the option to be given their honorable discharge instead of being forced to accept an experimental vaccine

It literally sickens me how soft you are. You are demanding that not only do service members get to desert the military at the first sign of danger, but that they also get to be treated as honored veterans by our government even after deserting? Really?

It is a whole new understanding of the military. Someone could volunteer for the military, get all sorts of training, get room and board, get paid, etc. Then if there is a war, or any other danger, or even if it just is inconvenient, they can get honorable discharges. Then they can apply for veterans benefits, and get the same benefits as those who went to war.

America is doomed with soft losers like you.

I do believe that you could be tied with LV246 and katzgar as possibly the most deluded idiot on this board. you dumbasses jump to the most hyperbolic conclusions over something as simple as 'the sky is blue'.........Given your moronic thought processes here, I'm betting you think that it was OK to infect the tuskegee airmen with syphillis, don't you?

[Walt]

you are so full of shit. trump got voted out because of the hatred of 78 million Americans. nothing more, nothing less.

Where do you come up with 78 million? 81 million people thought Biden would make a better President than trump. I was one of them. There were 3 million other voters who thought someone else would be better than trump. And there were 74 million who thought trump was the best of the choices.

All of this is to say, trump lost the election, because a majority of the American people did not want him to be president. Actually, the majority of the American people never wanted him to be president.

millions of you leftist morons whined and bawled over being ruled by old white men.......it got worse after trump was elected, so much so that some of you crybabies kneeled in the street and screamed to the heavens to give voice to your pain......

4 years of absolute hatred and rage were focused on election day as you morons voted for someone you said you were tired of being ruled by, all to get rid of another old white man that filled you with so much rage it forced you to praise and worship an old white man as the best thing for america at the time.........when y'all had another choice.

[Underdog]

This is about the same rate for medical professionals.

Next you will be claiming that the Jews only problem with Hitler was that he was German, or similar nonsense.

So rather than keep the military prepared for possible conflicts, you want to send them off to an island somewhere to hide from Covid-19?

Clearly, you have no idea what the military is for.

It’s my body and I’ll decide what risks I’m going to take with it and when or if I want to take them.

If you want to have the right to decide what risks to take, do not volunteer for the military. Unfortunately, that is not an absolute protect against being in the military. There is always the possibility of the draft. Unfortunately, in the real world, you nation can draft you, and force you to risk your life against your will.

Lets start out with actual history. The Tuskegee Airmen were not infected with Syphilis. The Tuskegee Airmen were Blacks who were trained to be pilots during WWII. They served with honor. I am sure that fewer of them got Syphilis than did their white fellow pilots. They were called the Tuskegee Airmen, because they were trained in Tuskegee.

There was also the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. That also involved the city of Tuskegee, Alabama, and also involved Blacks, but I assure you there was no overlap. The Blacks in the Tuskegee Syphilis Study were sharecroppers, whereas the Blacks in the Tuskegee Airmen were officers in the Army Air Corp. To be an officer in the Army Air Corp, you needed to not have Syphilis for the previous couple of years, and you needed to have a lot more education than the sharecroppers had. The sharecroppers had very little education, which is part of the reason the study was performed on them.

No one was infected with Syphilis in the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. They were men who already had it. Or at least those who were not in the control group. Almost half of them did not have it.

The crime of it all was that the Syphilis went untreated for decades that it could be treated. They were not told that they had pre-symptomatic/asymptomatic Syphilis, and were allowed to spread it. The lack of treatment made sense for the first 15 years, because there was no real treatment, but for 25 more years, where an easy treatment was known, they were not treated. Even during the first 15 years, they were allowed to transmit the disease without knowing it, so there was no excuse.

So to repeat, the crime was to allow more transmission of the disease, and the lack of treatment of the disease. It was not forcing the limiting of transmission of the disease, or forcing treatment. You are the one arguing for allowing pre-symptomatic/asymptomatic infected people to spread the disease.

[Walt]

WHAT???

You argued that the only reason people did not vote for trump, was because he is an old white man. The fact is that those same people who did not vote for trump, voted for an old white man in 2020.

The reason Jews voted for Germans other than Hitler was not that Hitler was a German. It was because they disagreed with his policies. That whole genocide thing was a deal breaker for Jews. I like to think it would be a deal breaker for most Jews, even if he had targeted only Gypsies, and not Jews.

you have some major comprehension issues as well as some serious psychiatric troubles......

[Walt]

you have some major comprehension issues as well as some serious psychiatric troubles......

And you remember the Tuskegee Airmen getting infected with Syphilis.

[Lionfish]

Why doesn't biden just issue an executive order banning the china virus and it will immediately stop killing people.
