1
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: Are we writing some of the many wrongs that have

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: been done to America and her citizens. This came out

3
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: about a month ago, but it's being pushed out a

4
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: lot harder now, and I think it qualifies for the

5
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: best audio of the day.

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 2: It was an emotionally charged moment. You have the Undersecretary

7
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: of the Navy apologizing on camera to every sailor and

8
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 2: marine who is kicked out of the military for refusing

9
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: the COVID nineteen vaccine.

10
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 3: To the sailors and marines who are wrongly discharged during COVID,

11
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 3: we failed you. We will never allow this to happen again,

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 3: not on my watch. We are ready for you to

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 3: come back, and we want to correct your records. You

14
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 3: are warrior's conscience and we need people like you back

15
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 3: in the force to accomplish peace through strength. We're writing

16
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 3: this wrong, and it starts with this formal letter of

17
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 3: apology semperfy at huyah.

18
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,919
Speaker 2: Will that include back pay and promotions commensurate to their timing.

19
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 4: It's been discussed. I don't think that's been finalized. But

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 4: the way our government and most of our culture operated

21
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 4: during COVID is a national embarrassment and it's not talked

22
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 4: about enough, and it seems like absolutely nobody was held

23
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 4: accountable for it. People lost their jobs, Lots of people

24
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 4: lost their jobs. Now this person, the Under Secretary of

25
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 4: the Navy, talking about and apologizing specifically to the members

26
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 4: of the military who were forced into vaccinations, many of

27
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 4: them against their will. But there are a lot of

28
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 4: private sector employees that were forced to get vaccinations or

29
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 4: under the threat of losing their jobs. A lot of

30
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 4: people lost their jobs because they refuse to get the vaccine.

31
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 4: And you had President Joe Biden saying things like, you're

32
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 4: not going to get COVID if you get these vaccinations.

33
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 4: We know that that's not true. I had to get

34
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 4: COVID vaccinations to keep my job at the time, and

35
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 4: still got COVID after I was given the vaccination. Anthony Fauci,

36
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 4: When you get vaccinated, you contribute to the community health

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 4: by preventing the spread of the virus. In other words,

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 4: you become a dead end to the virus. We found

39
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 4: out that that was absolutely not true, that if you

40
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 4: got the vaccine, you could not only get the virus,

41
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 4: you could still spread the virus. The director of the

42
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 4: CDC said vaccinated people do not carry the virus, they

43
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 4: don't get sick. All of that was untrue. There was

44
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: discussion people talking people that suggested that if you hadn't

45
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 4: gotten vaccinated, you shouldn't be allowed to go to a

46
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 4: hospital for any problem at all. They were talking about

47
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 4: if you didn't get vaccinated, you were going to kill grandma.

48
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 4: The way our government and culture operated during COVID in

49
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 4: a lot of ways a disaster. I'm just talking about

50
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 4: specifically the vaccine as it relates to right now. But

51
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 4: this is one small step and apologizing to our men

52
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: and women in the military, and it's not enough, and

53
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 4: not by a long shot.

54
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: And when I look at the calendar and I realize, oh,

55
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: six years ago today.

56
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 4: Is that it is March tenth, the anniversary of when

57
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 4: the whole country got shut down because of COVID.

58
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 2: Very exactly right, Yeah, yeah, have we recovered?

59
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 4: Not everyone, not even close. The world and our country

60
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 4: is forever different because of COVID.

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: It is ninety three WYBC
