Linda Boyle: Military brass sat on data that showed warriors had herd immunity from Covid

The U.S. Department of Defense hid data, and military members suffered and lost their careers. The Defense Department knew that the military had reached herd immunity, yet it mandated unnecessary Covid vaccinations anyway.

The early Covid years were fraught with confusion and misinformation, which the government used to control the population.  The mainstream media were accomplices in this fear mongering tactic. 

This fear led to mandates, lockdowns, mandatory shots, and neighbor against neighbor. Vaccine mandates became the “norm” to stop the spread of Covid-19.  

Defense research showed that the military had reached herd immunity in June of 2021, two months prior to the vaccine mandate. Why did the government push for the mandate and hide the information from the public? 

Once the first Covid gene therapy shots (mRNA) became available, Dr. Anthoniy Fauci, then director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease and the president’s top Covid adviser, told us we needed to get 70 to 85% of the population vaccinated to gain herd immunity.

Herd immunity occurs when a certain percentage of the population is immune to a virus, develops resistance against that virus, the infection rate falls, and the amount of disease in the population decreases.

The first Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) was given to the Pfizer vaccine in December, 2020. 

Then Dr. Fauci stated we could achieve herd immunity against Covid by “the end of the second quarter 2021” once vaccines were widely distributed. 

In August, 2021, Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III issued a memorandum that mandated COVID-19 jabs for all service members. This decision was made with “careful consultation” of medical experts, military leaders and with President Joe Biden’s support. DOD spokesperson John Kirby stated this mandatory compliance was “necessary to protect the health and readiness of the force”.

Despite available data that clearly demonstrated the military had already achieved herd immunity, the DOD hid that information and forced military members to take the jab or be discharged from service.  

Over two years, 8,339 service members were discharged for failing to follow a “lawful” order because they refused to take the jab for religious/personal reasons. 

The Pentagon had no choice but to repeal its Covid-19 vaccine mandate when that requirement was added to the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act. In doing so, the Pentagon warned such action could put service members at risk of serious illness. 

The bad outcomes that the Pentagon predicted did not occur. 

The Gateway Pundit published an article in November on studies of military members early in the pandemic.  According to a series of eight interim reports, “the Department of Defense (DOD) engaged in a longitudinal SARS-CoV-2 (coronavirus) seroprevalence study of 29,000 members of the U.S. military between May 2020 and June 2021. Active, Guard, and Reserve components were included in the study.” 

To prevent these reports from being released outside the Defense Department, they were marked “For Official Use Only” or “Controlled Unclassified Information.”  This would have prevented the reports from being subject to the FOIA act. These documents were provided by an unnamed military whistleblower.

The results of these studies showed in May and June of 2020, the seroprevalence rate was 2.88% but it rose dramatically in May and June of 2021, surpassing 70%. Seroprevalence is defined as “the percentage of a population who have the presence of neutralizing antibodies in their blood, showing they have been exposed to a virus or other infectious agent.”  

In the same research population it was demonstrated that the neutralizing antibodies had also risen above 70%.   Neutralizing antibodies defend the cell from pathogens or organisms that cause disease—say Covid-19.  This production occurs whether through “vaccines” or from getting the infection.  

In other words, as early as June 2021, the study verified from a sample across active duty members, reserves and guard that the military had met the definition of herd immunity established by Dr. Fauci.  

The graph below shows how the changes in antibody levels occurred over time.  Note that the overall percentage in June of 2021 was over 70%.  

According to the dates in the reports, Army Col. Kevin Taylor, was the responsible point of contact for action around July of 2021. It is not known what he did with this information, nor is it known if Sec. Austin knew of this report prior to making the jab mandatory for all service members in August of 2021.  

Apparently, this herd immunity information was hidden from everyone.

Based on the scientific data there was no need for  military members who refused the shot to be discharged for refusal.   

The military could have just given the jabs to those who wanted it and allowed those who did not want it for personal or religious reasons to remain in the military.  

Fast forward to now. What we do know is herd immunity wasn’t going to happen to the extent Dr. Fauci and others stated.  The virus is great at mutating, and it continues to do so causing an annual jab to now be the government solution.  

Even though there is increased concern about its safety and that the newest jab “drastically reduced efficacy among a population with high immunity levels and rising costs.”

But Big Pharma really thinks you need to continue to “protect” yourself even if the latest version is not overly effective on the current mutant coronavirus.

The real questions are:

Why was this information withheld and marked as confidential to prevent its release? 

Why was such a hard line taken when the data clearly demonstrated the military already had herd immunity without Covid jab mandates?

What purpose or whose agenda did it accomplish to hide the truth? 

How many military members have been forced out or voluntarily separated when the mandate business started? 

Do those members deserve to be reinstated with back pay? 

Who should be held accountable for hiding the truth?

This mess could have been avoided if we had only followed the actual science, as Dr. Fauci repeatedly told us to do.

  1. Becoming ever so clear that we have another institution that’s infected with ‘wokeness’ and that Pete Hegseth will dutifully // deservedly clean it out. Hopefully, Lisa won’t embarrass herself (along with Alaskans) by not supporting Hegseth.

  2. Once again, with millions dieing from covid complications, some are still monday morning quarterbacking. You follow orders in the military. It’s what you do. If not, people can and do die. Like to not follow orders, disobey orders, think on your own, maybe military service isn’t for you. If you contributed to any of this so called free thinker confusion, shame on you. I’d rather be a day late than a dollar short. Shame on you nurse.

    • Military members ONLY have to follow legal orders. Remember My Lai in Vietnam? The Uniform Code of Military Justice protects those who do not follow illegal orders. Military members do think on their own and still stay in the service. Do you know how many military members took the Covid shot and were injured. How many suffered myocarditis?

  3. Slowly, studies are emerging that mRNA technology isn’t good for humans as the mechanism used to do its job can’t be shut off after its intended use. With that, it will be recalled and deemed toxic. Say what you will but this whole charade was to enrich those, who spent 40 years of R&D of this technology, with their sought out ROI. It’s all about the Benjamin’s people.

  4. Of course they did. It might have distracted from the war on “white supremacy” and common sense.
    Can’t have that.

  5. Nobody should trust the government let alone in the military you join the military you’ve got a good chance of not living to see the end. As much as they abuse and use you who would want to volunteer to join the military. Chances are you’re gonna fight a battle some politician decided that we needed to be involved in

  6. There are evil people pulling the strings. They’ve been working to brainwash the sheeple for decades and most if not all bias and stubborn sheeple have there minds already made up and refuse to look at any factual info. I’ve found that there are very few uninformed that are willing to actually look at compelling evidence. I believe this is the main cause of the world’s predicament The small minority of people who do see what’s happening and care are making great effort to snap people out of there humdrum! Thanks to Susan and MRAK team for your diligence here in AK we actually have news.. not jus cBS
