ALPA folded on this. Mandatory vaccines are a new thing. They are not contractual yet we gained nothing in return and placed no constraints on the company going forward. I'm not talking about the now defunct LOA, which gained a few bucks for some and kept the vax optional for others. This is a totally different game they're playing this time. The shot took folks out of flying for 48 hours and many had effects during that time period that would yeild a sick call. So what are the rules going forward? No pay for the mandatory shot? No work for a few days? Use your own sick time?

PS. I realize I'm a bit premature here. ALPA did say they're renegotiating with the company and that will take time. I'd imagine the company making such a promise would actually give them leverage. Hope they have our back on this.
