If I'm reading the data right, it looks like the numbers for May 2021 Phd's is 14.6% vaccine hesitant.
They did the survey in Jan as well, maybe the numbers were starkly different then since the vaccines were still associated with the outgoing regime, and Phd's are nearly universally of the other persuasion. Looks like they got on board with the new guy's program pretty quickly though.

Yeah, that was my point. I haven’t seen something that says PhD’s are getting vaccinated at 50% rates, but when this study came out everyone was singing from hills at how the PhD’s were the most hesitant, while still being only 14% so… which made it a nothing burger.
If there’s actually something that shows that 50% number I’d be interested to see it, but it was probably made up.

The criminal transmission of HIV in the United States varies among jurisdictions. More than thirty of the fifty states in the U.S. have prosecuted HIV-positive individuals for exposing another person to HIV. State laws criminalize different behaviors and assign different penalties. While pinpointing who infected whom is scientifically impossible, a person diagnosed with HIV who is accused of infecting another is in many jurisdictions, automatically committing a crime.
Vaccination or no guns.
Sounds entirely reasonable.

I'm not so sure about that. Approx. 50% of the population gone from the revenue. Maybe a few stragglers but that's the reality. Might as well fire up the furlough machine again. I'd love to see them do this just to watch the passengers that don't want the vaccine give the giant middle finger to the entire industry. I'm so tired of all of the people with the vaccine trying to reason why somebody else should get it. I'm vaccinated and don't give a damn if somebody else gets it. I'm protected....right? What a bunch of ass clowns we have in our country now. Get your vaccine and move along. Or don't. Not my business what others do with their bodies. If that were the case, the airlines should be able to not hire fat people, smokers, drinkers, people with disabilities, people with comordities, people with a family history of diseases. They all cost us more because of their problems. Why should they work for us? We should be able to discriminate based on all of those things as they affect the health of our workers. Wonder how that would go over? Black adults have the highest ovesity rates in the country. Should we start hiring less because the odds are higher? See where this crap goes?

None of those things you wrote (fat people, smokers, drinkers, people with disabilities, people with comordities, people with a family history of diseases) is contagious and passed on usually without even knowing. Except second hand smoke, but smoking is already banned in planes, inside airports (except special smoke rooms). If any of those things were contagious, that would be a different story.
I’m disheartened to see how many man children there really are, frankly, I’ve had it listening to middle to upper aged men using the phrase “my body, my choice.” If you work for a 121 passenger airline here, get the jab. You may find yourself unemployed if you don’t. It really is that simple. And EVERY reason I’ve heard against taking the jab is either misinformation, fake news, or ludicrous claims.
