More than 20,000 Airmen and Guardians across the Total Force remained unvaccinated against COVID-19 as the deadline for the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve passed Dec. 2. Out of more than 500,000 Total Force members, 95.3 percent were at least partially vaccinated against the novel coronavirus, according to data released Dec. 3 by the Department of the Air Force, the first military department to set deadlines under Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III’s vaccine requirement.
