Naval Hospital Bremerton/Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command Bremerton

Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class Brittany Vain provides the COVID-19 vaccine to Anh Nguyen, staff pharmacist on Dec. 29, 2020, at NHB/NMRTC Bremerton. Then, as now, Vain augmented the command’s preventive medicine technicians (PMT) during a mass vaccination evolution. As a ready medical force, the PMTs are again preparing to administer vaccine on a wide scale to those in need as 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).
