As a Disable Veteran that was a Combat Medic, I can attest that Lee is NOT
correct. That training is not given to the vast majority of soldiers. That
training is MOS specific or available to a handful of soldiers selected by
their units to attend the Combat Medic course. The overwhelming majority of
soldiers do not get trained in the admistration of injections. That being said,
there are STILL thousands of health care professionals between the branchs
capable of giving vaccinations, as Carol said.

Fact.

Good... but I sense sacrcasm in your reply, Lee. I also fail to see a problem
with providing enough vaccinations during a pandemic. 

 CS> Stop being an idiot on this one.

 LL> President Joe Biden is also Commander-in-Chief.

Vaccines work and save lives.
