realrawnews.com If joe Biden gets his wish, the military will soon discharge soldiers who refuse a Covid-19 vaccination, Real Raw News has learned.
Currently, vaccines are scarce and vaccinations are voluntary, except in certain circumstances. Soldiers wanting the vaccine get it at once, if available, or are placed on a waiting list; those opting out, however, are put on a different type of list, a directory of undesirables the DoD will investigate for ties to âanti-vaxxerâ movements, a pejorative phrase often used to describe persons who question vaccine safety and efficacy.
An administration source speaking under promise of anonymity told RRN that Biden aims to weed out non-conformists, and Biden believes that anyone refusing a vaccine must be a Trump supporter.
âBiden sees a direct link between Donald Trump and people who wonât get a jab,â our source said. âHe sees Trump as the preeminent figurehead of the anti-vaxx community, and Biden has said thereâs no room for anti-vaxxers in his military.â
According to the Department of Defense, 30% of enlisted soldiers between 18-25 years old have opted out. That percentage drops precipitously with age, and only 10% over the age of 35 have chosen to not get vaccinated.
Nonetheless, both figures have caused considerable alarm within the administration, our source said.
âThe DoD expected some resistance, but nothing like the figures weâre seeing. Theyâd anticipated like 3-5% among all ages, so these 10 and 30 percent figures have alarm bells sounding throughout the Pentagon,â our source said.
Biden, he added, pitched the idea to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, all of whom reportedly agreed that vaccine denialists posed a health menace to the entire military. But other Joint Chiefs were less receptive to Bidenâs agenda, with Marine Corps commandant Gen. David H. Berger arguing that discharging 10-30% of soldiers across all branches of the military would irreparably damage the nationâs defense posture. He also noted the troops Biden wanted to cutâyoung, healthy persons with no comorbiditiesâwere among the least likely to suffer serious side effects of the virus.
âGen. Berger asked Biden why he simply didnât make the vaccine compulsory, so people didnât get a choice, and Biden absurdly responded heâd have know way of knowing which soldiers were anti-vaxxers or loyal to Trump if he did that,â our source said.
Biden then employed an illogical analogy, likening vaccine deniers to soldiers refused to wear âsteel helmetsâ on the battlefield because they thought they wouldnât get shot in the head.
âKevlar,â Gen. Berger corrected him. âItâs called Kevlar. We no longer use steel pots. And Iâm not sure thatâs ever happened.â
âYou make suggestions, I make decisions. Iâm the president,â Biden purportedly told him.
In closing, our source said the administration is still figuring out logistics on Bidenâs plan, such as whether to have a mass purge, or slowly discharge soldiers to avoid a media frenzy. Also, Biden said he would decide whether discharged soldiers be denied access to VA services, labeling them potential super spreaders.
