In U.S. Navy Seals 1-26 v. Biden, (5th Cir., Feb. 28, 2022), the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals refused to grant the Navy a partial stay of an injunction issued by a Texas federal district court protecting 35 special warfare personnel who object on religious grounds to complying with the military's COVID vaccine mandate. The court said in part:
Defendants have not demonstrated “paramount interests” that justify vaccinating these 35 Plaintiffs against COVID-19 in violation of their religious beliefs. They insist that “given the small units and remote locations in which special-operations forces typically operate, military commanders have determined that unvaccinated service members are at significantly higher risk of becoming severely ill from COVID-19 and are therefore medically unqualified to deploy.” But “[r]outine [Naval Special Warfare] mission risks include everything from gunshot wounds, blast injuries, parachute accidents, dive injuries, aircraft emergencies, and vehicle rollovers to animal bites, swimming or diving in polluted waters, and breathing toxic chemical fumes.”

can someone explain
Way too long for court relief, many have already been coerced or drummed out.
Injunction against injections
Great news!
The Fifth Circus to the rescue - wow.
Looks like a narrow ruling that would only affect these specops men.
If you've spent decades saying the pro-life position is just a religious issue, and you refuse to believe there's a legitimate religious objection to taking an experimental jab made from aborted babies ... you might be a Democrat.
They’re good enough to catch a bullet for their country, but not to catch the sniffles.
Baruch Hashem.
5th circuit lawyers are correct and show the failed view that non-vaccinated people are a danger to others. Here is the military conclusion: Can’t let non-vaccinated join the troops, since the non-vaccinated may catch covid and give it to everyone. Emotional argument based on fiction. Vaccines do not stop the spread.
We understand you, but you are sane and not in charge.
