Pilots protest against vaccine mandates outside Charlotte-Douglas International Airport

प्रस्तुत
 
As planes were taking off from Charlotte-Douglas International Airport Saturday, pilots who fly for major airlines and others were protesting vaccine mandates below. The rally put on by the group US Freedom Flyers was organized to express their stand against the most recent requirements from the Biden administration for companies with 100 or more workers.

I asked my internist over the past nine months about getting the CoVid19 vaccinations and booster. He strongly urged me to do so and also to get my annual flu shot. I complied…it’s just that simple!

Just flew with an FO a few weeks back who was told by his doctor NOT to get the vaccine as he is susceptible to blood clots and he could die from the shot. He applied and received Reasonable Accommodation yet is on unpaid leave. THIS IS WHAT THE PROTESTS ARE ABOUT. So in many cases, it's not Easy-Peasy at all and someone is not getting paid for what exactly????? Heads need to get out of so many Asses!

Baloney. The mandate accommodates true medical exemptions.

Not baloney. United Airlines just "won" the lawsuit against them by employees who were granted exemptions and placed on unpaid leave. So even people with legitimate medical conditions that are exempted from the vaccine(s) will not be getting paid until the pandemic is "over", whatever the f^#% that means.

The World has lost it’s mind. This chemical substance they are injecting is not a vaccine, has no long term studies, plus one jab has become two, three, and now four! Where does this end? Also it doesn’t last very long! Follow the money! Oh yes, and by the way, it’s still experimental so let’s job the whole world and see what happens over the next year or so.

Those that are vaccinated (the vast majority of workers) don't want to work with and be exposed to the virus by the small number of anti-vaxers. It's pretty simple, people don't want to increase their risk of getting sick or bringing the virus home to loved ones who may be vulnerable and end up in the hospital or worse. It's sort of like be intoxicated and flying an aircraft, its a public health issue. Man-up and get vaxed instead of whining, it's not about you and your misplaced political ideology. If trump was able to mandate vaccines I'm sure many on the other end of the political spectrum would resist out of spite.

The more anti-vaxxers....the fewer anti-vaxxers.

"Over the next year or so the unvaxxed will get infected, survive to natural immunity or die, I'm easy about both outcomes." Perfectly stated JB! My only problem is with the hospital bed the unvaxxed will use for a time which could have been avoided in 99%+ cases.

The crazies are the ones who are spreading the nonsense about this being practically an extinction level event - when the reality is that it is either 98 or 99% survivable - depending on your stat perspective.

USPOP: 332,920,000 (census.gov as of this morning)
USCOVID: 46,800,000 (cdc.gov as of this morning)

14.05% of US population is infected. 14 in every 100 people.

USCOVDEAD: 759,000 (cdc.gov as of this morning)

1.62% of infected die. 98.38% of those infected survive. 3 of every 200 infected die (rounded up)
0.22% of USPOP die. 99.78% of all people in the US survive. 1 out of every 500 people die. (rounded up)

I have been following the statistics since April 29, 2020, and have been recording the numbers on a spreadsheet as my personal acknowledgement of the deaths. I have lost two family members from Covid 19. I am not a "crazy" who is spreading nonsense. The numbers I enter on a spreadsheet do not reflect my personal loss, nor do your statistics convince me that this pandemic is not significant.

srobak 6
If you have indeed been following and recording the stats - then you know that as miniscule as both death rates are (vs. infected as well as vs. total uspop) - they are also only getting worse, if ever so slightly - as more people are vaccinated.

a 99.7 and a 98.3 % survival rate while certainly notable is not significant to the point of shutting down the country, isolating the citizens, instituting illegal mandates and decrees, wiping out the economy not once but twice, cutting people from their livelihoods, denying people their rights while tearing up other rights, denying people medical care, and labelling people as racists.

We have other much more prominent and disastrous killers that far outpace covid which society and government continues to ignore - and in fact only perpetuate and accelerate willingly and post a much higher risk to us all than this does.

Unless and until we start dealing with those killers with half the level of vehemence as we have associated with this one - our government's and society's position on it is meaningless and shall fall on deaf ears. Period.

Read this!
The anti-flu vaccine contained nanoparticles of graphene oxide and the new anti-flu vaccines and the new and supposedly intranasal anti-COVID vaccines they are preparing also contain enormous doses of graphene oxide nanoparticles. Graphene oxide is a toxic that generates thrombi in the organism, graphene oxide is a toxic that generates blood coagulation. Graphene oxide causes alteration of the immune system. By decompensating the oxidative balance in relation to the gulation reserves. If the dose of graphene oxide is increased by any route of administration, it causes the collapse of the immune system and subsequent cytokine storm.
Also, according to this study, levels of graphene oxide in certain ‘vaccine’ vials contained up to 99% graphene oxide and little else. This toxin can cause pneumonia when the nanoparticles enter the lungs. Graphene also causes a metallic taste and inflammation of the mucus membranes which can lead to a loss of taste and smell. It can as well cause strong magnetic responses inside a host organism, and can also cause red blood cell damage. When deposited on most any surface, it can be converted into an electronic conductor. This would lead one to question many ‘Covid’ symptoms and the possible uses of graphene oxide in the so-called ‘Covid-19 vaccine,’ as this study group also claims that graphene oxide actually causes what is erroneously described as ‘Covid.’ If this is the case, then the ‘vaccine’ is indeed the bioweapon.
The very many adverse effects of graphene oxide delivery into living organisms has been long studied, but virtually nothing about this has been mentioned by the pharmaceutical companies, the government, or the mainstream media. In fact, there has been express denial of any nano-particle use in the flu and ‘Covid’ injections by these same sources in the past. The information in this report is staggering, but little effort is required to understand the high risk of using these toxic nano-sized particles in ‘vaccines.’
Graphene microparticles, and therefore graphene by injection, can lead to major respiratory sickness, including lung cancer. Once these particles are inside the body, and in the cells, the human immune system has not the ability to rid itself of these deadly nano-particles, and they become permanent and can cause extreme physiological harm in the body at the cellular level.
Bioweapons can come in many forms, and this is the new tactic of war against the people by this and other governments. The powerful controlling element of society and its corrupt government partners care nothing about you or your families, but only about power and control over you. The real bioweapon is not any ‘virus,’ but is the ‘vaccine’ delivery system itself, along with masks, and testing, as perpetrated by the very entity (government) claiming to be your savior. The elimination of this government is in order.
It seems that the death of billions is sought, and a new master and slave society controlled by technocrats in a transhuman environment is the desired outcome. Today, science fiction has become reality!

Math time? More like dropped out after my second year of the 9th grade math time. If you don't know the difference between relative and absolute risk (as one tip-of-the-iceberg example) you might want to dial down the "these are simply odds, so sorry if they don't fit your narrative" routine. Simple odds are not how you calculate risk.

This appears to be a red herring fallacy. One example: Showing that an unvaccinated person might be at greater risk of dying in a fire than dying of Covid distracts from the issue. If the issue is one of choice, the statistic of dying in a fire is irrelevant since it is not likely that the victim made a choice to dye in a fire, whereas deciding not to be vaccinated is a choice. Interesting set of statistics, but not very helpful or convincing of anything.
srobak
srobak 3
these numbers have nothing to do with choices. It is simply odds.... and unvaccinated odds, at that. Sorry if the odds don't fall in favor of your narrative - but between the odds as well as the raw numbers of deaths vs. survivors of both infected and non-infected - the truth is pretty clear. This is not what they are telling you it is - and these numbers are artificially inflated as it is, courtesy of false cause of death reporting, as stated directly by the people doing the reporting themselves.
reedmaxson
Reed Maxson 1
I don't know what you think my "narrative" is. Some of your examples involve choice, others do not. You're comparing apples with oranges and saying they are "simply odds" and stating that it is not as bad as they are telling us. As of 16:22 PST, Nov. 14, 2021, 763,064 people in the USA have died from Covid. Explain to the friends and family members of the 763,064 that it's just odds and not what they've been telling us.

Covid is real, but the EMERGENCY! is a lie (and has been since May 2020).
Innate/acquired/natural immunity is real. Near 100% recovery for the vast majority of infected is real.
Claim that the vaxxes are remarkably safe and effective is a lie. Claim that universal vaxxing will fix our plight is a lie.
‘Pfizer says’ is not science. ‘Biden, Fauci, Walensky, Newsom (etc) say’ is not science. $cience and political science are not ‘the science.’
Anything and everything done in the name of Public Health is not immune to scrutiny, criticism, noncompliance, and Constitutional check.
Segregating human beings based on their vax status is Dark Ages policy that – at some point – history will record as abominable (and non-science). Persecution of the ‘unclean’ is a grave stain on the characters of its advocates.
So-called ‘private’ entities do not have carte blanche to impose experimental medical treatments on their employees. Neither do governments. See, for example, The Nuremberg Code. When forced vaxxing is a public-private ‘partnership,’ that’s fascism.
Our unalienable rights are as natural as our immune systems – given by Nature’s God, not by Man. Among those rights is one’s ability to pursue one’s livelihood (life & property). That right of pursuit of livelihood was stripped from Jewish people circa 1938 in Germany.
Covid has been exploited globally by the tyrannically-inclined to regress the masses into subservience to the despotic State and to certain of their fellow men. Good people, if they are in fact good, need to smarten up and say ‘no’ in word and deed.

I'm an ATP who flies for a major cargo hauler world-wide. I applaud those who won't volunteer to be a human guinea pig, and don't want to have something foreign injected into their bodies, and told if you don't that you'll be fired and lose your way of making a living. For many of us, this is the only way of providing an income and making ends meet.

For those on here saying "just take the jab" like you did for school, military, etc; NOT all of us were in the military, not all of us have had, or want vaccinations for every little thing that scares YOU. We survived H1N1 and Bird Flu just fine without injections. And most importantly this is UNTESTED (long-term) "science." Have you not heard the maker of the mRNA "vaccine," Dr. Robert Malone say that this isn't a good idea to roll these vaccines out like the big 4 are? Yes, those of us who aren't getting the shot are well versed on what is in these and have made our choice for different reasons. Some because of the fetal cells (religious reasons), some for medical allergies, some because they already have gotten Covid and aren't going to mess up their antibodies up for Covid that are already present. The jury is still out on this "science" and the initial numbers do NOT look good. Israel is a good case-study. Nearly 100% vaccinated and massive problems with people still "getting" Covid and being hospitalized. Search it.

This said, I know everyone can make a choice for themselves; vaxxed, or unvaxxed. I respect that. This is America. We should all be able to respect each other's opinion and have our own bodily autonomy. If we don't have that, then America is lost! "...For the land of the free, and the home of the brave"

This is not a question of personal choice, any more than driving drunk is. Refusing to get vaccinated is almost exactly like driving drunk because it makes you a threat to everybody around you. And you can't name a single freedom that is infringed because you get vaccinated.

Your claim that the vaccines are experimental is false. They have not only been tested through all the normal phases, but there have now been BILLIONS of monitored doses. There is no controversy here: the vaccines are extremely safe and highly effective. Malone did not invent mRNA vaccines, and is a crank.

The whole "fetal cells" objection is pure flapdoodle.

If I remember correctly United mandated the Covid vaccine long before the government mandate was issued. And I believe almost all airlines are requiring new hires to be vaccinated.

Choosing to be vaccinated is the choice of the person who desires to be vaccinated not the government, not your neighbor, not anyone but yourself. Whether or not I am vaccinated is none of your business. Yielding to the busybodies only empowers them for intruding in every aspect of my life.

Sure, but the federal government has required vaccination for more than a century for some roles. Schools have also required them. The largest socialist job program (the military) requires them. Private employers require them. Universities require them. If you don’t want to work in any of the places that do, and don’t want to use any business or service that requires them, you are absolutely free to not do so.

USCOVID: 46,800,000 (cdc.gov)

14.05% of population is infected. 14 in every 100 people.

USCOVDEAD: 759,000 (cdc.gov)

1.62% of infected die. 98.38% of those infected survive. 3 of every 200 infected die (rounded up)
0.22% of USPOP die. 99.78% of all people in the US survive. 1 out of every 500 people die. (rounded up)

Simple. Basic. Math.

Here are the covid death probability statistics in the US (total USPOP, without the vax)

1.1% chance of dying by suicide
1% chance of dying of an opioid overdose
0.9% chance of tripping over and dying
0.9% chance of dying in a motor vehicle crash

Looking at just one of your "statistics" puts the rest in doubt. According to the CDC, there were 49,860 opioid overdose deaths in 2019 (the last year for which statistics are available) and a population of 328 million. So the risk of an opioid death is .02%--a fiftieth of the 1% you cited (https://www.cdc.gov/drugoverdose/deaths/index.html).

The anti-flu vaccine contained nanoparticles of graphene oxide and the new anti-flu vaccines and the new and supposedly intranasal anti-COVID vaccines they are preparing also contain enormous doses of graphene oxide nanoparticles. Graphene oxide is a toxic that generates thrombi in the organism, graphene oxide is a toxic that generates blood coagulation. Graphene oxide causes alteration of the immune system. By decompensating the oxidative balance in relation to the gulation reserves. If the dose of graphene oxide is increased by any route of administration, it causes the collapse of the immune system and subsequent cytokine storm.
Also, according to this study, levels of graphene oxide in certain ‘vaccine’ vials contained up to 99% graphene oxide and little else. This toxin can cause pneumonia when the nanoparticles enter the lungs. Graphene also causes a metallic taste and inflammation of the mucus membranes which can lead to a loss of taste and smell. It can as well cause strong magnetic responses inside a host organism, and can also cause red blood cell damage. When deposited on most any surface, it can be converted into an electronic conductor. This would lead one to question many ‘Covid’ symptoms and the possible uses of graphene oxide in the so-called ‘Covid-19 vaccine,’ as this study group also claims that graphene oxide actually causes what is erroneously described as ‘Covid.’ If this is the case, then the ‘vaccine’ is indeed the bioweapon.
The very many adverse effects of graphene oxide delivery into living organisms has been long studied, but virtually nothing about this has been mentioned by the pharmaceutical companies, the government, or the mainstream media. In fact, there has been express denial of any nano-particle use in the flu and ‘Covid’ injections by these same sources in the past. The information in this report is staggering, but little effort is required to understand the high risk of using these toxic nano-sized particles in ‘vaccines.’
Graphene microparticles, and therefore graphene by injection, can lead to major respiratory sickness, including lung cancer. Once these particles are inside the body, and in the cells, the human immune system has not the ability to rid itself of these deadly nano-particles, and they become permanent and can cause extreme physiological harm in the body at the cellular level.
Bioweapons can come in many forms, and this is the new tactic of war against the people by this and other governments. The powerful controlling element of society and its corrupt government partners care nothing about you or your families, but only about power and control over you. The real bioweapon is not any ‘virus,’ but is the ‘vaccine’ delivery system itself, along with masks, and testing, as perpetrated by the very entity (government) claiming to be your savior.

Is anyone "coming at you" with a syringe? Who is forcibly vaccinating anyone? Perhaps your level of paranoia means you should not be allowed to possess your guns. Please spend all of your available funds on guns and ammo and then you will simply be declared unfit due to mental instability. We'll "hold onto your guns/ammo" for you. Don't worry, you will be allowed to come visit (and probably pet/fondle) your guns any time you want, under the supervision of a Catholic Priest, for sure.

It is well known that healthy young adults (especially males) are at high risk of developing myocarditis/pericarditis post vaccination with an mRNA drug. There has been an epidemic of healthy young adults just dropping dead for no apparent reason after getting vaccinated.

How long before an otherwise healthy young pilot drops dead at the controls of an airliner? How long before such incidences result in a fatal plane crash? We should all be supporting these pilots in their fight against the needle Nazi's. How does it advance the cause of airline safety to have 1000's of pilots flying around with ticking timebombs in their chests?

while you are correct in the first half of your statement - the 2nd half has a couple issues...

1> there are not very many young pilots
2> even if a pilot drops dead at the controls - there is another one in the cockpit. while both pilots may drop dead at some point from myocarditis - it is very unlikely that both will at the controls of the same plane.
3> even if one pilot does drop dead - you and I nor anyone on the flight will know.... the plane will land, everyone will be deplaned and then the medics or morgue will come and get the body. the entire incident will go unreported to the masses, and the surviving pilot will be under an extremely strict gag order - or will simply be disappeared outright.

you can take all of the above to the bank. they will go to any lengths to prevent the truth from being known, just as they have already about everything surrounding this entire pandemic.

A healthy young pilot? Have you been to an airport lately? Take a good at the majority of these pilots. Pouring out of their uniform, if they wore a garmin watch they’d see their heart rate hit zone 5 as they waddle up the jet bridge to go get their Big Mac. These people are a joke and an embarrassment to the piloting community. We all know 1st class medicals are not created equal.

If these people were so concerned about their health the first thing they’d do is get on a treadmill and lose 100lbs.

I'm increasingly coming to the view that with full public disclosure, all services including transportation and medical care should be open but segregated: let unvaxxed pilots and cabin crew fly unvaxxed passengers only, and keep services and facilities for the vaccinated strictly controlled to minimize exposure. Over the next year or so the unvaxxed will get infected, survive to natural immunity or die, I'm easy about both outcomes.

Sorry boys, but odds are 50-50 for another serious winter lockdown caused by unvaxxed clogging of medical facilities for all purposes after the holidays. In that scenario the vaxxed majority is going to lose all remaining patience with providing the unvaxxed with anything at all.

Just because you (mcut) declare that there is no basis for the claims made by physicians, research virologists, leaders of public health organizations and members of the FDA and CDC does not mean you are correct. The information provided is based on actual scientific data and not on unsupported declarations. The latter is propaganda and is dangerous for the general public.

The long timeline for the various co-vid vaccines have not been fully discussed. I had co-vid and it was mild. I am 87 and have natural immunity now.

This entire vaccine situation is still a crap shoot on the long term effects. Lets go Brandon.

Not according to the data, natural immunity, especially with mild cases of COVID, does not produce as strong an immune response as the mRNA vaccines. So someone in your situation will probably get sick again and next time may not be so lucky.

Not sure what this means, but in reality getting vaccinated not only dramatically reduces ones own risk of getting infected/hospitalized/dying etc, but helps greatly to protect others who may be more vulnerable than you may perceive yourself to be.

"First, they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Change that first line from socialist to "unvaxxed"

Just because someone declares that there is no scientific basis for the claims made by physicians, research virologists and members of the FDA and the CDC does not mean they are correct. Declarative statements without scientific evidence is pure propaganda. As such it serves to undermine the overall safety of the public.

A few days ago, after a months-long back-and-forth, the CDC finally responded to a FOIA request asking: ‘Do you have any documented evidence of a naturally immune, unvaxx'd individual spreading COVID to another person or being reinfected?’ The CDC’s response: ‘No, we do not.’ SEE this document for the proof: https://twitter.COM/aginnt/status/1458951166704947208/photo/1.

The point is, “claims made by physicians, research virologists and members of the FDA and the CDC” are frequently baseless and wrong. Their “declarative statements without scientific evidence is pure propaganda.” I’ve used your own words and demonstrated the irony of your comment.

It is not possible for me or anyone to regurgitate all the evidence behind our claims (against current vaxxing and other covid policies) in this forum (or elsewhere and all the time). Besides, the burden of proof is on the official actors to substantiate their claims and justify their policies – which, aided and abetted by the dominant-establishment media and naïve citizens like you (apparently), they do not do.

It’s hard for many to believe that governments and ‘experts’ are bad actors in league with each other. It’s difficult to comprehend why they would all lie to us in concert. However and tragically, it is true.
