The deadline for full vaccination of active duty personnel is November 28, which means they must receive a second dose before November 14. Reserve personnel must be fully vaccinated before December 28.

 

The report mentioned that after the final deadline in November or December, US Navy personnel who refuse to be vaccinated will begin to face administrative (penalties) measures. The personnel concerned may be disqualified from professional qualifications, including combat qualifications and minor professional qualifications.
