Army officials are working on a new plan to make soldiers feel comfortable getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

Right now, thousands of service members are refusing or putting off getting their shot.

Since troops often live and work closely together, commanders are making this a top priority.

They've been focusing on improving numbers and knocking out internet rumors about the vaccine that aren't true.
