Will they cancel Korea assignment orders if you’ve been diagnosed with a skin condition that prevents you from getting the small pox vaccine? I’m asking a legit question not trying get out of anything so Please save the “Stop trying to get out of stuff” responses constructive advice please

No lol definitely not. You probably won't die from smallpox, so it's not really a show stopper.

You’ll still be able to go, I was assigned there last year and had never gotten the smallpox shot!

You are 100% still good to go. My wife has an immune disease where I cannot get the shot, however, we could still PCS to Korea. Have fun!
