U.S. military officers have criticized the Department of Defense and other agencies for their lack of response to a U.S. senator’s queries regarding the labeling of COVID-19 vaccines that have been distributed to service members.

In August, a group of military whistleblowers delivered a 41-page memorandum to members of Congress, claiming that the Pentagon had “unlawfully administered” Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) vaccines, as opposed to vaccines that had received full Food and Drug Administration approval.
