At the end of the day, those researchers, scientists and virologists know more than we do about the subject, so yes I trust them, just as I expect them to trust me when it comes to aviation.

If you live in Illinois, check out the Loyola university student ruling.
You have a case. There's a 2016 law passed that protects you.
No need to take the jab, unless you want to.

Let's see, if 10% of our pilots are unvaccinated that is up to 1500 pilots (Actually, that number is high but I'm being charitable and I'm not going to waste my time getting an exact number). We've lost two of them in just the last couple of weeks. Oh, and we have no idea how many of those 1500 have actually survived it already (a quick Google search suggests at least 10% of Americans total so far). Sure, it is a very small sample size, but just among our peers it is at best a 99.866 survival rate right now and it can only get worse.
If simply driving your car had that survival rate most of us would have been dead decades ago. May the odds be ever in your favor.

I trust the science when done properly.
Sad to see the few on here willing to slam the cell doors on even one brother/sister.
So much for unity
You've brought us all down.

Senior folks please read. This is good advice for those of you on the fence and senior to me. If things don’t work out for you Drum takes full responsibility for his advice. You can’t lose!

Your precedent as a company is going to hurt a lot of people in this profession.
Your union rolling over on it is deplorable. But hey, it's your union not mine.
Too bad you are blind to it.
Sad. Times. Follow.

The odds are in my favor, my family and I had it, no problem.
