NEWS FLASH: The "vaccinated" can CATCH AND SPREAD THE VIRUS!
At a much lower rate.
What is the percent of deaths and hospitalizations for vaxxed/unvaxxed?
This is going off topic though - that discussion is for other threads on vaccines themselves.
This is about employees (presumably) responding to a company policy. They can choose to work there or find other employment.
The company can choose to be a federal contractor- and with that all of the $$ and rules that entails...or they can *not* do that and keep some employees happy.
Airlines should post their pilots' vax status before you book your flight so people have a choice as to whether to take that flight. Pro vax will go with a vaxxed pilot and pro freedom passengers will not.
A compromise might be to have vaxxed pilot and unvaxxed co-pilot (or reverse) so if one has a stroke or heart attack, the other could take over. The one who is vaxxed should also have to get weekly D-dimer blood tests for micro clotting.
I received an unsigned reputation comment that said that the fuselage color in the picture was a plain blue, and thus it could be any airline. To whomever sent this comment, I can only say, do your homework. Of the 7 largest U.S. airlines, exactly ONE of them has a blue fuselage in the nose area. Care to guess which one?
If anyone wishes to counter that it might have been a plane from a minor airline, I would say again, do your homework. Find an airline that paints is nose fuselage in that color. (I'm assuming that it is a U.S.-based carrier, due to the Gadsden flag.)
Can you explain this one to me ? The vaccine does not prevent transmission. So how is being unvaccinated putting others at risk ?
I should not have allowed myself to fall into a bait and switch argument.
The response is as follows:

1. By infecting other non vaccinated people, including children and babies, and causing business disruptions when others who have been vaccinated have to stay home from work, close their businesses and quarantine after exposure.
2. By filling up the hospitals and ERs and causing delays in urgent and intensive medical care for others
3. By perpetuating this pandemic when we all want it over with.
4. By allowing the virus to continue in the community and mutate into a more deadly strain.
5. By costing taxpayers millions in unpaid medical bills and funeral expenses (which are paid for by the government for people who die from COVID)
