Senior Army Doctor: COVID Jabs Pose Greater Threat to Soldiers’ Health and Military Readiness than COVID
Long continued by saying she believed the American soldiers were a “national treasure” that should not be treated as “lab rats,” and deserved “the best medical care.”

Lieutenant Colonel Theresa Long, a senior U.S. Army aerospace medicine specialist who has treated soldiers injured by COVID vaccines, said that those shots pose a greater danger to the health of American servicemen and military readiness than COVID itself and condemned the Biden administration for treating men and women in uniform as “lab rats.”
Long testified at an expert panel on vaccine mandates and COVID vaccine adverse reactions organized by U.S. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin on November 2 in Washington, D.C. Her statement was made as protected communication under the Military Whistleblower Protection Act (10 U.S.C. § 1034).
Long began by denouncing the Biden administration’s treatment of American soldiers who were forced to take the COVID vaccine or face a discharge, which Long said was equivalent to losing them on the battlefield:
Over 200,000 U.S. members have rejected the vaccine, yet the military is pressing forward without regard to damage to morale and readiness. We have never lost 200,000 soldiers on the battlefield in a few months. Taking soldiers out of uniforms has the same impact on readiness as losing them on the battlefield.
Long further described how she expressed her concern to the senior leadership over the rushed manner in which the vaccines were trialed and then imposed on the nation’s military during the U.S. Army’s Senior Preventive Medicine Leadership Course held this past May. She inquired:
So we skipped two years of phase two trials and three years of phase three trials, we only lost 12 active-duty soldiers to COVID, yet we’re going to risk the health of the entire fighting force on a vaccine we only had two months of safety data on?
The answer was:
You’re damn right, Colonel, and you’re going to get every soldier you can to take the vaccine so I can get enough data points to determine if the vaccine is safe.
Long continued by saying she believed the American soldiers were a “national treasure” that should not be treated as “lab rats,” and deserved “the best medical care.”
When Long first encountered a case of severe adverse reaction to the vaccine developed by a military colleague at the beginning of the vaccine rollout, she decided to take a closer look at the possible side effects and turned to the Vaccine Adverse Effect Recording System (VAERS).
“What I found horrified me,” said the doctor, “I found that the VAERS, in only a few months into the vaccination campaign, already had more deaths than in any year for all vaccines combined in each of the 10 years previously.”
When Long contacted the Army Public Health Command to inquire about the adverse events following the vaccination, she learned that the command was not tracking, tracing, or monitoring such cases.
At the same time, the Department of Defense was engaged in a marketing campaign to encourage military healthcare professionals such as Long to get vaccinated and then post about it on social media:
I received an email encouraging military healthcare providers and professionals to get vaccinated: “put a sticker on your uniform, post it to social media with the hashtag “the vaccine is safe,” or hashtag “get vaccinated!”
Long added that the army medical staff was simply used as a “marketing arm of pharmaceutical companies,” which was in fact a violation of DOD regulation that prohibits endorsement of a civilian product.
Long specifically underlined the threats that the vaccines pose to female health. She recalled a dramatic story of a young woman who trained at Rangers’ school and initially resisted the vaccine and experienced constant harassment for being unvaccinated. The woman later caved to the pressure and took the vaccine, which caused her such severe health complications that she had to drop the course.
Long said:
One of the things that this female’s story highlighted the most for me was that women had unique considerations than men and postmenopausal women.
Women who are in their childbearing potential have all the eggs they’ll ever have from conception until menopause. Their exposure to various chemicals, toxins, drugs and x-rays can not only affect their health, but that of their children and their ability to have children.
The army doctor added that historically, eight out of 10 drugs that initially “went through standard clinical trials,” but later pulled off the market disproportionately affected women, which developed cancers and transgenerational infertility. Consistently with Long’s observations, the World Health Organization data on COVID vaccines’ adverse reactions shows that almost 70 percent of all such cases so far have occurred in women.
Finally, Long discussed the issue of young men being at risk of developing myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle, following the vaccination against COVID. Even despite the fact that the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was discussing the issue in June, the military did not pause the vaccination effort.
When Long grounded three out of three pilots who developed severe reactions to the jabs that prevented them from executing their duties, her leadership “canceled” her as a physician who treated patients with acute conditions.
In the conclusion of her speech, Long warned against the dangers of “groupthink” in medicine. The architects behind the universal vaccination campaign, including Dr. Anthony Fauci and members of the Food and Drug Administration and the National Institute of Health, only allow for one narrative: “The vaccines are safe and effective.” But “neither is true,” the army doctor said.
Currently, the Biden administration is facing multiple legal challenges to the vaccine mandate for the military, as The New American has reported.
