You aren’t following very well.
Whether or not CXT500T had his anthrax vaccine is irrelevant.

TheCovid “vaccine” isn’t required for an FAA First Class medical.

I would be interested in “true facts” as to what percentage of ICU beds have COVID-19 patients who DID NOT take a vaccine vs. those who DID take a vaccine.

I have heard things all over the spectrum.

In the United States, CDC is NOT tracking vax status for hospitalizations or deaths as a matter of policy. They DON'T want to know. It might conflict with the narrative that this is now a "pandemic of the unvaccinated..."

Maybe the CDC is tracking cases by citizenship status! Oh wait….Covid doesn't come across our southern border.
Canadian border remains closed, but the southern border is wide open for covid and Democrat voter registration.

They are. Just not for infections alone. So if you’re a COVID + case, but don’t get admitted to a hospital, the CDC doesn’t track if you have or have not been vaccinated. If you get admitted to a hospital for COVID or die, that data is tracked and available to the public.
