This is good news.

However, I was told by someone in canada on my work team who will be working in the US for a while that they are still required to get the covid vax.

Ridiculous

Much respect for the ones who kept their frame and kept refusing it.

Why would Canada require someone to be vaxxed who isn't living in their country?

Yes, I'm sure - it's US Citizenship and Immigration Services.

As a former navy nuke, I'd have to requalify for all the watch stations.  I might be reassigned to a different ship, so I'd be starting from scratch.

It's a good move, but the reintegration into the ranks would be challenging.

Regardless, it was US mandated.

And makes no sense.

Only a couple guys in the Navy went back.

BOOM, it did, effective, 1/22 (proper date form).

Looks like my girl just had unlucky timing.
