Requiring every Fedex employee to take a vaccine that is now showing less than 40% effectiveness against the latest COVID variants, and is already being recommended for boosters after 6 months is not a strategy for success at FedEx. Especially when so many employees already have the more effective natural immunity.
Previous Covid Prevents Delta Infection Better Than Pfizer Shot
I’m not sure what you mean by 40% less effectiveness. Everything I’ve read is that cases don’t matter. It’s hospitalizations (flattening the curve) and deaths. And that the vaccine is preventing the overwhelming majority of those here. That it’s almost exclusively those not vaccinated who are being hospitalized and dying. Not that that means FedEx will mandate it. No one knows that.
