* New data released by CNN says that 38.9% of the Marines have refused the vaccine
* It is considerably more than the rate of rejection in the general public which is about 25%
* Military officials have said previously that hesitancy is mostly down to concerns over how quickly the vaccines were developed
* As of Thursday, 20 percent of the US population is fully vaccinated Nearly 40 percent of the Marines are choosing not to get COVID-19 vaccines, according to new data.
CNN reported on Saturday that some 75,000 Marines have had one or two doses of a vaccine, and 48,000 have refused - a rejection rate of 38.9 percent. It is considerably higher than the rate of rejection among the general public which, according to a recent NPR poll, is around 25 percent.

WNU Editor: The US Marines are not the only ones who are reluctant to take the Covid vaccine .... Many health care workers are refusing to get a COVID-19 vaccine (CBS News).
On the other side. The situation is different for many members of the American military and their family members stationed outside the US who want the vaccine now .... Frustration grows at US military bases overseas over slow pace of vaccine rollout (CNN).

Yeah no shit
Here, take the vaccine
Oh and it's technically not a vaccine
But take it
Oh and we developed it in a fraction of the time, with a fraction of the short term AND NO long term testing
Here take the vaccine
Oh by the way, most people don't need it
But take the vaccine
Oh and the manufacturers are immune from any consequences if something happens to you
Here take the vaccine
WHAT IF THERE ARE MID TO LONG TERM CONSEQUENCES?
our media sucks so bad, is so not doing its job, taking a vaccine like this, an mRNA technology with no long term studies, based on media pressure is INSANE
YOU FCKING TAKE THE VACCINE
Everything is based on a lie, even the reason why there's the Wuhan virus
Fck the WHO
Fck the MSM
Fck Biden &
Fck the CCP
Enough said?
Name calling is not an argument. You did not debate a single point he said. I have seen expert support everything he, 12:21 said. There should be a debate but it is not allowed. THAT SHOULD MAKE YOU SUSPICIOUS. Here is one more for you. The vaccine makers claimed to have tested the efficacy of the vaccines, BUT NOT THE SAFETY OF THE VACCINE, which is actually a gene therapy according to Bill Gates. I guess this is why they wanted complete immunity. You take the Jab and leave me alone.

Here is an article that needs to be dealt with, scientifically, before we call the jab safe. I want to prepare you 12:26, it has big words like "cell" and "DNA" and stuff. your mom might be able to give you a summary.

12:26 is an uninvited, unofficial, untrained, uncouth bouncer. We all know who he is and his unsavory character traits are on full display.
1:04,
12:26 is a functional illiterate.
12.26 could be a school boy just trying out his biggest baddest words.
12.26 could be a China troll.
12.21 may be a US Marine and even if he's not its quite likely that 40% of US Marines may agree with him.
12.26 should remain silent.
The US Maines should task the PAO with creating and presenting a presentation (PowerPoint obviously). The center piece of it would be a Gantt Chart or some such project management artifact.
That overpaid, know nothing, should have been put out to pasture Dr. Fauci should have had a GS5 thru GS13 put one together already been brief and added his 'wisdom' to it. He then should have kicked it upstairs to the Whitehouse or presented it to the View and elsewhere. After all he gets his ugly mug on TV often enough.
The main page of such a presentation would be ... The Gantt chart. Subsequent or supporting pages would cover the individual activities. If nothing else feedback about the individual activities would allow The Brass to find out specifically the sticking points and address those. Yeah, we probably already know those. One would be the use of the mRNA. The other would be the 1st, 2nd or 3rd round trials, their length, the number of participants, etc.
If vaccine then, says phred, is so bad, why did Trump take it and why did Biden take it and why did our editor here take it?
now show me it is bad or that it does not work most of the time or that all we need to is NOT take a vaccine despite the fact that those who have the virus and take the vaccine report feeling better with the vaccine.
ok. now tell us
"vaccine then, says phred, is so bad, why did Trump take it "
Marines have a much lower risk of a bad outcome with corona that a 70 some year old Trump or Bidem.
Different level of risk/
You do not expect you to understand Fred. Risk is most succinctly expressed in terms of numbers and well you and numbers have never gotten along.
The whole country of Israel has taken it. Few side effects. When I was in the US military, shots were not "please take it", it was show up and we give it to you. Bitch about it and go to jail or get kicked out.
call me names, stalker. I care not. Don't want the vaccine? do not take it. don't want to wear mask? do not wear one. just keep far enough away from those that do wear masks.
try going to doctor's office and many other places now without one and then report to us how you are deprived of your rights,rights to be staking moron
4:36,
I did not call you an asshole although I think the name is apropos. You do realize that your mask can kill you? No, you probably do not. You are all around ignorant. You are special that way. You should be considered the gold standard in any definition of the term bigot.
