Both Biden and Harris said no when asked if they would take the coronavirus vaccine that Trump was pushing.<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lloyd Austin, Defense Secretary, is going to ask for authorization to make COVID-19 vaccines mandatory for those on active duty. This request is expected to come this week. Normally, these kinds of orders do not happen until the Food and Drug Administration fully approves the vaccine. However, Joe Biden can waive this requirement, paving the way for these vaccines to become mandatory for those on active duty.<\/p>\n

From CNN:<\/span><\/p>\n

Austin’s “inclination is towards making the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory” for active duty troops, a defense official told CNN.<\/p>\n

If the Secretary makes that final recommendation, he could seek a presidential waiver to allow the vaccine to be administered to troops before full approval by the Food and Drug Administration. A Pentagon decision and recommendation on how to proceed could come this week, several officials say.<\/p>\n

Biden announced on July 29 that he was asking the Defense Department to “look into how and when” it will add the COVID-19 vaccine to the list of mandatory military vaccinations. Biden specifically said he knew that Austin is “open to it.”<\/p>\n

Since then, the Joint Chiefs have met to discuss how a mandatory vaccination plan might work. Austin has also been consulting with military medical authorities, the defense official said. Austin’s current view is to “seek authorization to make it mandatory.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
