A friend (former USAF Inspector General auditor) once told me, "You don't get what you EXpect, you get what you INspect." What is on the inspection (or on the exam) is the only stuff people actually care about.

Just wear the damned masks. If the Navy had any smarts they'd be asking about any prior positive tests - that indicates natural immunity from prior exposure, thus no need for vaccine. They'd also be smart to determine endogenous vitamin D3 levels, giving bolus shots as indicated, then supplementing with 5000IU D3/ 120 mcg K2(M7) on a daily basis. The latter goes for anyone reading this - see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha2mLz-Xdpg Prior immunity, see https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2550-z

I find it a bit amazing that the Command hasn't just said, you will be vaccinated per the following schedule. I don't recall ever been given an option on shots, especially before deployment. Although the flu shot was optional, and aviators generally passed on that one as it was an automatic 72-hour grounding after getting the shot. All other shots were mandatory.
