UAL Pilot Vax Status
 

Management says 90% of pilots are Covid vaccinated. Looking for non-scientific poll numbers to support or deny that very high number.

1) Yes, I received the C19 shot
2) No, I did not receive the shot (select this even if you submitted a falsified card)

On this forum?

Don’t worry your numbers will be just what you’re looking for.

For a true sampling, why don’t you walk around ops prior to a big push and just ask people their vax status that way?

Useless poll. 99.8% will have been vaccinated by the time the mandate takes effect.

Looking forward to the variants ahead. Not.

Sadly, I do expect the numbers from this forum to be higher than accurate numbers for our pilot group. It's an easy poll to run for quick data.

I've done something very similar and have found the numbers to be nowhere near 90%. I don't think their is any group of people in the country (pick your demographic) that are at 90% especially amongst healthy, generally fit, working age folks that have their medical records scrutinized bi-annually.

It will be a high number and sadly many will likely sacrifice their integrity to keep the paychecks. I don't think it will be 99.8% though. My guess is around 95% (less amongst other employee groups), which leaves a lot of honest folks with sincere convictions out of a job. This includes folks in the highest unvax groups (minorities) and folks on the lower end of the socioeconomic spectrum (most employees are not pilots). It also puts these employees in the limelight that historically is very negative towards the UAL image. UAL picked this battle to be the super-woke airline; many likely will take this battle head-on and the resulting mess will not be favorable for the company or these employees. It's a shame the company chose this as a battle to wage; almost an internal civil war which is a lose-lose. Dr. Dao was a total POS scumbag and he smeared our image in peoples' minds for years. Imagine a hard working, dedicated employee with a family to feed. Maybe a bunch of these folks with heroic and honorable backgrounds getting axed.

So in your view, if you got the shot you have no integrity.

I’m guessing he doesn’t even work here. I’ve yet to run across a pilot who has an issue with the mandate (at work, I’m sure there are some but nobody is complaining while on duty).

I know two people. Both of them have had Covid. They feel there is no reason to get the vaccine because they already have the antibodies. One of them is super religious, the other one is a workout freak, takes care of him/herself, eats healthy, feels there is no reason to get it.

I’m more curious if there will be any that ultimately decide to risk their job when the deadline comes ir just retire.

Not at all what I meant. Some will falsify the cardstock CDC shot record; that is the compromise in integrity. I'm sure many already did this.
