Navy discharges 45 sailors for refusing COVID vaccine

The Army is the only remaining service yet to have discharged any active duty personnel for refusing to have a mandatory shot, the outlet notes."As of Jan.

26, 2022, 5,035 active component and 2,960 Ready Reserve service members remain unvaccinated," per"There have been 3,258 active duty requests for a religious accommodation from immunization for the COVID-19 vaccine," but none have been granted so far, according to the Navy.95% of active-duty Navy personnel has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and 99% has had at least one shot.

There's over 340,000 sailors so the weeds wasn't much. Axios is doing too much drama.

Good! Enough with this nonsense!

Are they going to kick out the 3,250ish requesting religious exemption?

Unfit for service. The Navy is stronger without them.

Is that like all of them? Help me, I’m bad at math.

Good riddance

Bad headline, considering the vast majority are vaccinated

Sounds to me like they quit.

Insanity

Good.

Good riddance. Irrational political radicals have no place in the armed forces.

No. They were discharged for disobeying a lawful order.

Great. How many got the vaccine. I’m guessing a hell of a lot more. Headline should read less than 0.1% of naval personnel were moronic enough to not vaccinate. Not a great loss

Wow. 45. Do they want me to play the violin for them ? They had no problem getting the dozens of vaccines and shots to enter the Navy but somehow have a problem with this one ? Ahhh poor babies. I hope the door hits them on the way out.

Well done.

...after having had to take various shots previously.

The right thing to do.

Rookie numbers

“95% of active-duty Navy personnel has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and 99% has had at least one shot.” Should be headline

I thought U.S. Navy sailors were supposed to be brave warriors of the sea. Here they are apparently scared of little needles, like crying 5-year-olds. I bet U.S. could find better.

45 out of how many?

Good. I hope it was a bad-conduct discharge, too.

Oh no! Now we're helpless

🎵🎶So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye!🎶🎵

Beaut, they are traitors.
