We need a new morbidity baseline. Funny how the media has moved on from the death count. This virus isn’t as deadly as once purported. Recent therapeutics along with better understanding of the virus have greatly increased survivability. I mean Chris Christy - older, morbidly obese, with asthma survived the Rona. We’re so close to seeing this in the rear view mirror.

PSA: None of the vaccines have been FDA approved. The EUA for each vaccine says that the FDA believes it to be safe and effective based on preliminary trials, but also warns that there is no FDA approved vaccine to prevent COVID-19. The vaccines haven't passed normal rigor, and they won't for about two years.
Though I think it's unlikely that an employer would require employees to take an experimental vaccine, I have personally decided to trust the FDA approval process on this. I'm saying no-thanks to anything merely emergency authorized unless risk factors worsen significantly.

Oh they are still flying....they just disregard the mask policy as soon as the wheels lift off. Had a constant battle with a group of them yesterday going EWR-MEX. FAs chose not to write an IOR which could’ve resulted in permanent bans.

The Company may not be able to force a vaccination mandate, but other countries can. If you don’t have a required vaccination to get into a specific country, you’ll simply be removed from the trip without pay. I think that’s how the Company will take care of it.

There is that. If certain countries have "approved" a specific vaccine to their own satisfaction, that's all the justification they'll need.

United must have a really weak CBA if the baseless acts of a foreign despot cause you to lose a trip and not be paid.
