TYRANNY! Delta Air Lines Caves to Media, Mandates ‘COVID-19 Vaccines’ for New Hires: Report
NewsBusters ^ | 5/17/2021 | Joseph Vazquez

Posted on 05/17/2021 6:11:10 AM PDT by JV3MRC

The media have embraced a dystopian vision by encouraging businesses to mandate vaccines as a prerequisite for employment. The woke company Delta Air Lines has reportedly caved to anti-freedom and un-American pressure from the left.

Business Insider reported that Delta Air Lines “will mandate COVID-19 vaccines for new hires.” In addition, “the company may stop current staff members from working on international flights if they refuse a vaccine, its CEO [Ed Bastian] said.” Bastian reportedly told CNN May 13 that “‘[a]ny person joining Delta in the future, a future employee, we're going to mandate they be vaccinated before they can sign up with the company.’" Delta’s decision followed weeks of a cacophony of media outlets propping up the idea that businesses either should or could force prospective employees to disclose their private medical histories as a condition of employment.

“On what grounds? Nobody is forcing you to get vaccinated and nobody is forcing you to apply for a job at Delta.”

“No negros at the lunch counter is not a violation of rights because no one is forcing them to eat there.”

An "American" court would throw it out in a heartbeat.

On what grounds?

Denial of employment based on race is a violation of federal and state anti-discrimination laws. Those laws do not include anti-vaxers as a protected class so nothing in Delta's hiring practice in this case is illegal.

My employer requires a yearly flu vaccination or I am not allowed to work. Has been this way for years. I’m sure the covid vaccine will be required soon. I don’t necessarily like it but the choice is to get the vaccine or find another place to work. Both are equally valid choices

“For an experimental vaccine?? Seems a lawsuit is coming.”

Hope so. It’s NOT an FDA approved treatment, and some have died from them. It would be the same as mandating injecting ground up crickets.

I noticed something was wrong with Delta back in the 90’s with their aging, bitter, and wide “flight attendants”. I’ll walk before I’ll fly them again.

“Denial of employment based on race is a violation of federal and state anti-discrimination laws.”

According to your logic, there shouldn’t be such a law because no one is forcing their choice and the business has the right to choose too.

According to your logic the government should be able to tell the baker to make the cake.

The real idiots are the ones who can’t distinguish dangerous drugs from helpful ones, or mandates from personal choices.

Sounds like Delta is committed to infecting their passengers with FauciFlu.

“Federal law prohibits mandating emergency use vaccines.”

Federal law prohibits all kinds of things that have been happening for the last 15 months. Federal law means nothing any more.

The vile leftist groups are promoting this....why ANYONE, here, would, is beyond me.

Employers Can Accelerate COVID-19 Vaccination Efforts

https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/healthcare/reports/2021/05/10/499306/employers-can-accelerate-covid-19-vaccination-efforts/

(FTA....)

10 ways that employers can support COVID-19 vaccination
Businesses and other organizations can take steps to increase the U.S. population’s immunity and help restore economic activity.

Improving access

1. Reimburse transportation to vaccination sites or connect homebound employees with in-home vaccination services.

2. Arrange on-site vaccination for employees.

3. Host vaccination clinics for the general public.

4. Offer workers paid leave to receive the vaccine and recover from its side effects.

Informing and educating

5. Provide educational materials to employees on COVID-19 and the benefit of vaccines.

6. Support community awareness campaigns, especially those that feature trusted messengers such as religious leaders, health care professionals, and local activists.

Providing incentives

7. Offer monetary incentives to employees for vaccination.

8. Give perks to vaccinated customers, such as discounts on services or merchandise and preferred seating at sporting and entertainment events.

Requiring and verifying

9. Consider requiring vaccination if employees’ jobs involve a high degree of COVID-19 risk to themselves, consumers, or the general public.

10. Use vaccine credentialing systems that prioritize consumer accessibility and respect privacy.

~~~~~

As Dr Peter McCullough (a REAL, practicing TX physician) mentioned....this is otherwise known as COERCION....and, completely against the Nuremberg Codes.

(They always tell you what they’re doing/what their ultimate goal is.)

Is some ways I suppose. Nobody is requiring you to get the vaccination. Nobody is requiring you to apply for a job at Delta.

Exactly....it’s right there, in the Pfizer EUA language.

~~~~~~~

Sadly, true.

Hopefully.....with the OSHA release, and....MORE and MORE real doctors speaking out about the adverse effets of these shots, this will be an exception that holds up.

"Then this must mean that Delta Airlines is assuming all of the risk for the vaccinations and can be sued if (when) complications arise ...

My thoughts exactly! You beat me to it.
