Pentagon halts plan to give COVID vaccine to alleged 9/11 mastermind, Gitmo detainees
|
[NYPost] The Pentagon officially hit pause on a plan to offer the COVID-19 vaccine to prisoners held at the US military facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
"No Guantanamo detainees have been vaccinated. We’re pausing the plan to move forward, as we review force protection protocols. We remain committed to our obligations to keep our troops safe," Pentagon front man John Kirby said in a tweet Saturday.
It would seem simple enough to vaccinate the military personnel at the facility; that would meet the goal of keeping them safe... | The issue came to wide public attention after The Post reported that some of the most infamous Death Eaters in the world incarcerated there would begin receiving the lifesaving injections. Those potentially on the list included 9/11 criminal mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
There are currently still 40 people being held at the facility. Many prominent Democrats, including former President Obama, have vowed to close the detention center over the years.
The initial vaccine announcement from the Pentagon drew a sharp rebuke from New Yorkers, who bore the brunt of the 9/11 attacks which took 2,977 innocent lives.
