Preventive medicine technicians (PMT) assigned to NHB/NMRTC) Bremerton, prepare to administer the first Moderna COVID-19 vaccines Dec. 23, 2020. They are again preparing for a similar mass vaccination evolution to ensure there is a medically ready force. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin addressed all Department of Defense employees – active duty, civilian and contractor personnel – in a memorandum he will ask the president, no later than the middle of September, to make the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory. The actual vaccine mandatory date could become sooner if the Food and Drug Administration gives a final approval for the vaccine(s) or if the highly transmissible Delta variant of the virus continues to elevate infection rates (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).
