Since 2021, a concerning increase in pilot incapacitations and near-miss incidents has raised alarms among aviation and medical experts, leading to a heated debate over the safety of air travel and the potential link to COVID-19 vaccines.
A retired airline captain and immunology specialist, Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, has presented compelling evidence suggesting a correlation between the rise in pilot health issues and the rollout of vaccine mandates. This trend has significant implications for aviation safety and regulatory oversight.
Summary of Key Points:
-Rise in incapacitations and deaths: Since 2021, there has been a 40 percent increase in early pilot deaths and a tripling of long-term disabilities. -Near-misses at airports: Near-miss incidents at Washington National Airport have surged from one per year to 28. -Illegal vaccine mandates: Dr. Stillwagon argues that the mRNA vaccines were illegally forced upon pilots, violating FAA regulations. -Health risks: The mRNA vaccines can cause sudden cardiac arrest, brain fog and seizures, posing significant risks to pilots and passengers. FAA data gaps: The FAA has discontinued its pilot incapacitation database, hindering the detection of systemic trends.
Concerning trends emerge post-vaccine mandates
Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, a retired airline pilot and immunology expert, has sounded the alarm on a disturbing trend in the aviation industry. Since 2021, there has been a significant increase in sudden deaths, long-term disabilities and in-flight medical incapacitations among pilots. In a video discussion with epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher, Stillwagon presented alarming data:
Early pilot deaths: "There was a 40% increase in pilots dying early — before mandatory retirement age — in 2021," Stillwagon said. Long-term disabilities: Long-term disabilities among pilots have tripled since the vaccine mandates were enforced. Near-miss incidents: Near-miss incidents at Washington National Airport have skyrocketed from one annually before 2021 to 28 per year afterward. These trends have raised serious concerns about the health and safety of airline pilots, as well as the broader implications for air travel.…..
You need to include the fact that union pressure raising the mandatory retirement age from 60 to 65 has resulted in more pilots in the higher mortality age bracket of 60-65.
:-)
No, no relation.
I wish!
I noticed how nicely Bush fit right in between the other two screwworms.
Assuming the numbers are accurate, a few possibilities come to mind:
1 - Being a pilot adds some risk when combined with the jab. Perhaps altitude and pressure changes?
2 - Pilots happened to get a bad batch. Were there any mass jabs for me them or did they get them on their own?
3 - Pilots happen to have had bad experience since the jabs started. Flip a bunch of coins, one of them is likely to have a streak of heads. Since we aren’t looking at experience for most occupations, this probably isn’t what’s happening. Which leads to ...
4 - Maybe everybody is having bad experience. We just happen to have it for the group of pilots, who are going to attract attention when they have an incident at the controls of a plane.
Genocide Light! Get some today!
That is a bullshit assertion. Airline pilots get comprehensive physicals every six months. Raising the mandatory 60 year-old retirement age to 65 just incorporates the fact that people live much longer than when the 60 year retirement age was first in place.
I hate to be like this...
Yet more evidence of the failings of rfk jr & DJT re coping with the plandemic bureaucracy and its effects.
Yes, I’m citing rfk jr’s ridiculous ‘4 things’ as being wholly ineffective and - of their usefulness - grossly tardy.
This isn’t ignorance: It’s either willful inaction or incompetence.
Bogus.
The retirement age change happened at least a decade earlier in response to airline bankruptcies that resulted in many pilots losing pensions.
Nice try ALPA member, but the facts are the facts and there is a higher mortality rate in the 60-65 demographic than in younger groups.
And physicals will not detect and predict many pilot-debilitating ailments like kidney stone attacks, some cardiac issues, etc., statistically more prevalent in the 60+ age group.
How many military pilots do you find in the 60+ age group?
We've seen these kinds of desperate excuses before.
Sod Off, Troll.
Beautiful reminder. Many thanks and may God bless you.
God bless 🙏
