Dvorak issues a "mea culpa" regarding a newsletter error concerning the military rank of the U.S. Surgeon General. He explores the history of the position, noting it transitioned from Commodore to Admiral in 1871, and discusses the protocol of saluting these public health officials despite their lack of traditional naval command.
Dr. Lee Merritt, a former Navy surgeon, points out that only 20 active-duty service members died of COVID-19 in 2020, yet the entire military is being mandated to vaccinate. VAERS data shows a massive spike in myocarditis and leukemia cases following vaccination compared to historical averages. Merritt questions why the program hasn't been halted, citing the 1976 H1N1 vaccine suspension after only 53 deaths.
