New report shows how many members of the Utah National Guard are refusing to be vaccinated and could face 'consequences'
One hundred forty-eight personnel, which is about 2% of the force, are listed as having “refused” to be vaccinated, the report says. Of those, all but one are in the Utah Army National Guard.
A Utah National Guard spokeswoman declined interview requests, but said in an email that the Utah guard is following Defense Department policy and that any personnel going into long-term care facilities are vaccinated. The Utah National Guard this week announced it was sending troops into such facilities to ease civilian staffing shortages.
The Marine Corps, Air Force and Army have all begun discharging active-duty personnel who are refusing vaccinations. Cohn, who emphasized her views are not necessarily those of the Naval War College’s, said the military views immunizations as a health issue, and keeping personnel healthy is the first component of keeping them ready for missions.
