Or just complain in circles for another 1,000 post after getting the shot?

Question for you vax pumpers, what will you do when United does not follow through with their plans to terminate the unvaxed? There are several factors that will likely prevent them from actually taking action and this looks a lot more like a scare tactic.

Will you quit rather than being forced to fly with the evil doers? Or will you suck it up and just continue to complain for another 1000 posts?

5. Excerpts from Dr. Edward’s affidavit include:
In my expert medical opinion, subjecting airline pilots to the
emergency use authorized Covid-19 gene therapy injections
would subject them to a greater risk of harm than any benefit.
The above opinion is based on the following:
i. Pilots are vigorously screened and monitored for health
problems, and are generally regarded as extremely fit and
healthy. So, they are at a very low risk for developing
significant complications from an acquired infection with
Covid-19.
ii. Multiple published studies as well as me and my colleagues’
clinical experience shows that there are exceedingly effective
early outpatient therapies for Covid-19 that can reduce
hospitalization and mortality rates by 80-90%, even in an
unhealthy, high-risk population.
iii. The full benefit of the vaccine is still not well established as we
are still very, very early in the clinical trial phase and there
are multiple early indicators that the current dominant Delta
variant is not susceptible to being covered by the vaccine.
iv. A full understanding of the safety data and the probability of
adverse reactions is still very difficult to estimate based off the
fact the control group from the original study have now all
received the vaccine, the FDA and CDC have not held any
briefings to update clinicians, and we are relying on a self-
reporting system that was relatively unknown to healthcare
workers initially, is very cumbersome to use, is reportedly 2
months behind on data entry, and historically has been known
to only report 1-10% of adverse reactions. But, despite all of
that, there are still more deaths reported to VAERS, in
excess of 12,000 now, than all other vaccines combined
over the previous 2 decades. Many of the adverse outcomes and deaths are related to blood clotting
problems, including stroke, heart attack, and
pulmonary embolism. It is well established that airline
travel, due to altitude and prolonged sitting, is a risk
factor for blood clotting problems.
v. Lastly, the fact that pilots are responsible for the lives
of the crew and passengers onboard their aircraft, there
is even more of burden of proof on the individual or
entity who is attempting to mandate the pilots be
subjected to take part in the is clinical trial of covid-19
vaccine to prove that the benefit clearly outweighs the
risk and that there are no viable alternatives. It is my
very firm and sincere opinion that this standard has not been
met by the mandating entities.

Probably zero because no vaccines cause autism.
