Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian notified employees Wednesday that they will face $200 monthly increases on their health insurance premiums starting Nov. 1 if they aren’t vaccinated against Covid-19, citing steep costs to cover employees who are hospitalized with the virus.
Unvaccinated employees will face other restrictions, including indoor masking effective immediately and weekly Covid-19 tests starting Sept. 12 the Atlanta-based airline said in announcing new Covid policies for employees.
The measures are the latest attempt by a U.S. corporation to drive up Covid vaccination rates. Delta stopped short of an outright mandate like rival United Airlines established earlier this month. The airline, which self insures its employees, stands out in its plans to raise premiums for unvaccinated workers to cover the higher costs of insuring employees who get Covid.

I see a disparate impact given 75% of all blacks aren’t vaccinated.
What about fat people?
Alcoholics?
Smokers?
Pre-existing conditions?
Potheads?
Extreme sports enthusiasts?
Sluts?
Faggots?
So, Delta Air Lines is racist. Shout it from the rooftops.
Didn’t see a paywall at this one:

I could be and have been wrong before. :-)
Aha thanks!
Are they going to take this Same Exact Approach towards Lifestyle Choices that increase the chance of HIV/AIDS or Hepatitis?? How about Obesity? Drinking, Smoking, ....

Delta is unionized - ALPA.
So does this have to be negotiated?
I thought zero(obama)care made tier level rates illegal.

Hey! This is Free Republic… you can’t admit something like that. ;-)
Smokers often pay higher premiums, as do motorcyclists.
Blacks often have blood pressure issues and diabetes issues.
Can we charge them more?
Where does it end?
Covid is not a chronic malady.
Yesterday they said 76 percent of blacks were vaccinated. 66 percent white and 71 percent Hispanic.
My company can’t do that to me... I carry my own insurance earned after 20 years of military service.
Blacks are nowhere near 76%.
Who said this, and why do you trust them?
