One in four Fizer shotters had problems? Sure, let’s assume, just for laughs, that all the problem shots got reported. Then let’s note that only two years or so have passed with the shots in arms. By the time the six or so years have passed that were estimated to be the initial working time of the carbon trash in the shots I’m guessing the affected will be 4 in 4. Unless the clotshotted get proactive about cleaning up their blood chemistry many more will be going the way of the crown prince of Lichtenstein.
I’ve a strong inclination to believe at the least that this has gutted military aviation, particularly in the physically strenuous high performance aircraft. I expect that a good chunk of commercial pilots that refused the inoculation are going to be getting calls to come do 4-8 year stints until we can get a handle on how many people we can come up with that are not GMO and have a brain and are athletic.
One thing we’ve always held advantage wise up to this event is that we, particularly in WWII, have taken our top aviation guns and rotated them into training new crops of aviators while in the WW the Germans and Japanese utilized the vast majority of theirs until they were crippled or killed. While this resulted in ridiculously high kill numbers for some of their aces by wars end almost all of their highly proficient pilots were dead and they had guys climbing into the sky in performance machines with 10 or 20 hours of “sawhorse and plywood” stick time under their belt.
I fear that we could be on the cusp of facing that kind of situation. One big positive for us though is that currently there is no capability of any opposing force placing significant numbers of land based aircraft close enough to put that kind of sortie tempo on CONUS. That could change on a dime though with hostile acquisition of runways in Cuba, Central American, Mexico or British Columbia.
