Operative words
it is expected that COVID-19 vaccination will be voluntary until any vaccine receives full FDA approval and licensure... I authorize the Department to provide vaccines to Service members and other eligible DoD health care beneficiaries, as well as selected other-than-U.S. forces (OTUSF) populations, such as DoD civilian employees and specified contractor employees... select contractor personnel who usually receive influenza vaccines as part of a DoD occupational safety and health program (e.g., health care workers, maintenance depot workers), and who are not otherwise eligible DoD beneficiaries, may be offered COVID-19 vaccines at DoD
Enforcement
Departmental vaccine program authorization; phased priority
Notes
Names 'maintenance depot workers' among contractor populations.
