The Latest: More US airlines requiring employee vaccinations

Soumis
 
American Airlines, Alaska Airlines and JetBlue are joining United Airlines in requiring employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19, as the Biden administration steps up pressure on major U.S. carriers to require the shots. The airlines provide special flights, cargo hauling and other services for the government. The companies say that makes them government contractors who are covered by President Joe Biden’s order directing contractors to require that employees be vaccinated. (www.msn.com) Plus d'info...

Science is not science any more. People are interpreting the results with a particular perspective to achieve their desired results. Amazing how people cannot think for themselves anymore.

If you get vaccinated you probably have a better chance of survival if you’re over 65 and get COVID-19
It doesn’t prevent you from carrying the virus or getting Covid. It doesn’t stop the spread at all. It probably won’t work in a year or so as the virus mutates to survive all those who are vaxxed.
I don’t criticize anyone for getting it or for not getting it. I despise those who have squelched information on side effects (VAERS) and those who have prevented people from taking harmless therapeutic drugs that have been shown to work.

Ivermectin not shown to help in scientific large studies. Prevention is always better than treatment, ask any doctor!

There are double blind studies in Europe that disagree. In Japan they are giving out prophylacticly. I personally know people who it has helped. But make sure that you don’t take something cheap and effective that robs big pharma. Pfizer is working on a therapeutic that is similar. The big difference is that it will have a patent for them and make them a pile of money.

But there have already been double-blinded tests on the current vaccine available. Trump fans can applaud him for Operation Warp speed, and those against him can applaud the science. Both sides win. Not sure why anyone is arguing.

Duane Mader 1
In listening to Robert Malone, the inventor of mRNA Technology, the vaccines tend to produce strong antibodies that are targeted to a specific virus. The vaccines will be less effective as the virus mutates
All that said there are quite a few deaths of people soon after vaccination and I’ve seen a couple of bad heart problems with people I know. Use a search engine other than google and search “Moderna + second shot + heart”
Use your best judgment, the answer for you will depend on your health situation

Natural immunity? There’s something wrong when an issue is forced and reason is ignored. Treatments ignored, ie ivermectin This is such a decisive topic and people on both sides have misinformation. Media complicit. it makes no sense to force this; it does not prevent from contracting nor from spreading, survival rate over 99% and unknown side effects, no knowledge of long-term effects~ If this is accepted it is a slippery slope…

I’m not an antivaxer but I disagree with compulsory vaccinations. If the vaccine actually prevented catching, spreading and dying from COVID19 this might make sense but the vaccines are not performing as they should and should not be pushed like they are.

Based on my reading it seems at least two or three of widely available vaccines are performing BETTER than excepted.

Tim Dyck 0
I don’t know we’re you got your numbers but looking at CDC data the vaccines are performing way below expectations. What is worse though is many vaccinated people are able to have the virus without symptoms and pass the virus on to vulnerable people who cannot have the vaccination or are vaccinated but the vaccine is ineffective in them.

I had Co-Vid. It amounted to 10 days of a runny nose a lot of drainage. My normal daily activities were not affected. Had I taken the vaccine I might have died. No where in the annals of American medicine is there any mention of forced medical procedures, other than such are prohibited. Vaccine mandates are illegal. If you think otherwise you are on the road to Communism. I am 87 and carry 130 pounds on my 5'6" body.

10 days of a runny nose? Wow it hit you harder then it hit me. I had about 4 days of cold like symptoms and a sore back.
In all seriousness this virus does hit people differently, most are like us with nothing more then a bad cold but a smaller percentage develope pneumonia and out of them there are those who end up in hospital and a few even die. It is more serious then seasonal flue but it is also not bad enough for the amount of draconian measures we are seeing.

It would be nice if CV19 was like polio or smallpox and the vaccine would stop the spread. Unfortunately Covid is more like the flu and mutates around the vaccine. Neither is the “vaccine” a simple killed virus vaccine like polio or smallpox with known side effects.

Please do your own research and stop reading and listening to the MSM,....you will discover that most hospitalized are vaccinated...also you will be shocked to find out, how many people are dying from blood clots and heart issues within days and weeks of getting the shot.....Hospitals are getting very well compensated for every covid patient they admit...oh and if a patient dies from a car accident and test positive for covid using the tests that we all know are 100% unreliable, that death is recorded as a covid death....connect the dots...
TimDyck
Tim Dyck 1
Sorry but not 90%, more closer to 50% we’re we live, but we also have a high percentage of people vaccinated so a bigger pool for the virus to hit. But even if it was 90% then the other 10% show the failure of the vaccine to protect people which is what really needs to be adressed.

Free speech(deactivated media platforms which contradict mainstream media))...gone, restriction of movement with no valid grounds for doing so except control. Think about it for one moment. Some may agree with Biden this time. What happens when he restricts something you don't agree upon. Its not about the Pandemic... It's a tool to used to strip away America of her cherished way of life. The pandemic is not your enemy!!!

I can’t support this vaccine because it’s not doing what it is supposed too. When they came out last December we were told they were 95% or more effective at preventing COVID19 but we are seeing a high percentage of vaccinated people catching and even dying from COVID19.
We need a vaccine that works!

Ivermectin is manufactured by Merck which is part of "Big Pharma".

Screw these airlines. Flight crews need to do a walkout and strike like the unions do for their cause. The vaccine attracts the virus. Vaxxed people ofter catch the virus. For the unvaxed, Their body; their choice. I see people driving in their cars, alone, with a mask on. I wonder, do they lie in bed alone wearing a condom?

I know three people that got the Covid flu. The got monoclonal antibodies and then hydrochloroquine and rest and survived. No COVID vaccine. I know eight people that got the Covid vaccine, two got the Covid flu six months after the second jab, they got monoclonal antibodies and then hydrochloroquine and rest and survived. Two of the last eight are having secondary adverse effects to the vaccine, namely heart problems that they did not have before.

The Covid vaccine is only Emergency use only. The FDA approved version is just coming into production now. I am not against taking the Covid vaccine as long as it is voluntary and not mandated or coerced.

The real proof will be in one to three years when the long term effects start showing off. Remember it took over twenty years for the government to admit that Agent Orange caused long term medical disability effects and premature death. And that was not injected, but just exposure. So these non-vaccines are being injected into the body with no long term animal studies, just emergency use approval. So those that want it can have it, just do not make it mandatory, because, just taking it does not guarantee that one will not get the Covid flu in the future. So therefore, it is not a vaccine. You are not inmune after taking it, which is what a vaccine is supposed to do.

I’ve personally seen people I know get very sick. Now I’ve also seen people have horrible side effects from the vaccine. When something like this is unleashed on the world there may be no perfect options. Getting vaxxed has a low risk but possible serious consequences. Not getting vaxxed has a pretty low risk but possible serious consequences.
Sorry to be such a ray of sunshine.

Many hospitals are losing medical professionals who refuse the JAB. I trust them more than the CEO of American Airlines. It should be a personal choice, If you don't think so, read the Nuremberg Codes, the Nuremberg codes stipulate Consent MUST BE VOLUNTARY...threatening someone's livelihood....is forbidden. There are Thousands of medical professionals in Europe setting up for Nuremburg Trials.
You Can't sue The Vaccine Makers, They ARE Exempt.....BUT NOT EMPLOYERS. THIS WITHIN 3 YEARS WILL MAKE THE JEWISH HOLOCAUST Pale In Comparison.....Within 3 Years....2.5 To 3 Billion Dead. 8 Pilots in Europe Died in the air From The Jab, Think about that the next time you fly American Or United. Remember This , There Is A Reason Why There Are always 2 Pilots, With 2 Pilots, One Goes Down, You Still Have A Chance To Live....With Only 1 Pilot, He Or She Goes Down....YOU ARE DEAD.

I have family or acquaintances that work in hospitals. They are being required vaccinations or being fired. Three are being fired. Will work in a medical private practice where mandatory vaccination is not required. One got a religious exemption approved. One gave in and will wait for the FDA covid approved vaccine, because only that one is supposed to make the manufacturer liable for any adverse effects and only under that condition. So she has been allowed to continue employment until the new Pfizer FDA Covid vaccine is on the market. I hope she reconsiders, but it is her choice.
