Barry Moore condemns overreaching vaccination requirements for active-duty military | 2021-08-05 | 2021 | 2021-08 | Republican | House | AL | Barry Moore | M001212 | barrymoore.house.gov | barrymoore | https://barrymoore.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. — U.S. Representative Barry Moore (AL-02) released the following statement regarding reports that Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin will require all active-duty military members to receive a COVID-19 vaccination regardless of health, age, or other factors. “It is absolutely reckless that Secretary Austin is considering a blanket mandate for active-duty military to receive a vaccine approved only for emergency use to protect against a virus with well over a 99% survival rate,” said Moore. “Our fighting men and women are disproportionately younger, healthier and significantly less at risk from the coronavirus than the general population, and recent reports show that almost 70% of our men and women in uniform have already voluntarily taken the vaccine. Our servicemembers shouldn’t be unnecessarily forced into taking the vaccine just because overreaching politicians want to continue intervening in the private lives of the American people." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:11:17Z |
