I'll own it. The study stated: "Viral loads of breakthrough Delta variant infection cases were 251 times higher than those of cases infected with old strains detected between March-April 2020." https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....act_id=3897733

I inferred higher viral load based on the study's March-April period being primarily unvaccinated. However, this does not take into account the variable that the variant may have a higher viral load to previous variants and does not account for direct comparison between vax or unvax as it relates to this variant.

Now I digress.....you have posts stating falsehoods that the shot prevents transmission. A clear and undeniable fact confirmed by the CDC amongst other governmental health agencies. Infraction? Nope. Does it really matter? No, it just exemplifies the COVID-1984 nature of things.

What is the predicate for forcing others to take a treatment that does not prevent transmission? Why are fellow pilots advocating for their peers to take a shot that doesn't prevent them from spreading the disease?

And poof! Fauci changes the definition of 'fully vaccinated.'

All of the vaccinated folks will be officially UNVACCINATED.

If you personally don’t want the booster then congratulations, you will officially be an ANTI-VAXXER.

Good times.

Separately, didn’t Biden say we could get back to normal when 98-99% of the population is fully vaccinated? What about children, those medically compromised, and those with religious objections? Taking those into consideration, the population as a whole will never reach 98-99%.

Everything you post is wrong, and none of the links you post support what you claim they do. You are obviously not even reading the links you post.

This is a good example of why what you’re claiming is absolutely wrong:

I think you’re putting too much faith in some of these folks ability to reason and make informed and rational decisions. I’m looking forward to watching the overconfident throw away tens of thousands (or more) on lawsuits when case precedent has existed and been continuously upheld for well over a century. Jacobson v. Massachusetts anyone?

Yeah, you’re right.

But I’m definitely looking forward to them being terminated via the language in our contract, and we will have an ample amount of younger folks more than willing to replace them. Win-win for everyone!

Fedex will never mandate the vaccine.

Yes they will. The reasoning will be for government mandates. And you will get it too, it’s in your contract to do so.. But I’m hoping some of you don’t and get terminated. I welcome the seniority bump and look forward to the younger folks filling your spot.
