You're late to the fight! Georgia already offering free Waffle House for taking the vaccine. Kind of ingenious by appealing to the crowd who needs it most. Can't make this stuff up, I love it here...

Prevents the symptoms..we dont know if you can carry and pass on the virus yet.

Well you, as someone who has had the virus with minor symptoms, I understand your personal stance on not getting the vaccine. For those that haven’t had it and have one or more of the underlying conditions, the choice to get or not get the vaccine is not so clear...

Annnnnnd... it is not even really being touted as a preventative, but rather to lessen symptoms. (which, in my case were exceptionally mild. I have had the flu, and H1N1 was waaaaaaaaaaay worse than this China Flu and it isn't even close)

Yeah... Hell no.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but...

That’s a credibility builder right there.

Hey man it's up to you. I see way too many red flags in all of this to blindly trust the government or big pharma that this thing is safe. Roll up your sleeve if you want, and I pray for your safety. All I demand is the option to pass on it and wait until there is some history.

Not according to Pfizer and the FDA...

https://www.fda.gov/media/144414/download

“WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE?
In an ongoing clinical trial, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine has been shown to prevent COVID-19 following 2 doses given 3 weeks apart. The duration of protection against COVID-19 is currently unknown.”

To each their own. It’s been examined and tested and a high percentage of leading medical professionals are receiving the vaccine. Sure, there hasn’t been a ten year study, but it’s a risk/reward situation. I don’t know what type of mandates might show up but I see them having a hard time getting them enforced. I think they will end up getting shot down in court.

I just liked that you started with a “I’m not a ___, but...” statement. Contradictions like that always lead to wonderful conversations as well as start the best rotations. /s

Here's some gems from over the years. All these are true quotes, always made within the first minute or two of meeting the captain. I got along with all of them, but had some doubts at first.

"I don't know about you, but I'm ready to strike."

"Oops, just dropped my Bible."

"No reading, no revisions, no BS."

My favorite was, " I've been on the 73 for 20 years. I know everything about the plane, anything you want to know just ask.".

Was that before or after he fell asleep and almost missed a crossing restriction?
