Many here act as if this is some “freedom” issue. You’re not entitled to the job nor are obligated to take the job.
BTW; Every international airline I’ve worked for required other vaccines. Why is it any different with these (just as approved) vaccines?

Those don’t exist and are horse $hit.

What part of a vaccine that was rushed to the market, used widely under Emergency Use until recently, no track record like other traditional vaccines that have been in the market for decades, has known and quantified side effects, do you not understand?

This vaccine/jab is not for a disease like polio, chicken pox, meningitis, etc. And by the way, can you elaborate on which airlines require which vaccines? Unless you are flying all over the world, which the vast majority of US pilots are not, the only vaccine that seems to be commonly required is Yellow Fever. Please do tell which vaccine pre Covid did Fedex, UPS, United, Delta, American, etc require to get a job? I can think of…. NONE.

To you they might be, but not to others who genuinely cannot take the vaccine due to conflicts with their religious beliefs.

Can you please elaborate? I’m genuinely curious how religion affects the decision.

The cell cultures that are used to develop vaccines (not actually in the vaccine, as I understand) were harvested from a few abortions back in the 70s. The cell cultures are obviously many generations removed, but their use and their genesis is among some of the objections cited.

I was under the impression that the mRNA is developed differently.

Aborted fetal cell lines used in testing and development of the vaccines. mRNA technology as well interferes with my religion and what it says in regards to our physical bodies. I won’t post my entire belief on here. I’m open to PM if it’s easier
