President Biden's announced vaccine mandate for private employers is being blamed for flight disruptions, and now his mandate for federal workers is posing the threat of further travel chaos with the TSA admitting that 40% of its agents remain unvaccinated six weeks before the deadline.

"We have about 60 percent of our workforce has been vaccinated, that that number needs to go quite a bit higher over the next few weeks," Transportation Security Administration Administrator David Pekoske told CNN.

The Nov. 22 deadline is only two days prior to the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, which usually is the nation's busiest travel day of the year.

"We are building contingency plans, for if we do have some staffing shortages as a result of this, but I hope to avoid that," Pekoske said.

Taiwan will be futher out because the Olympics are pending and the CCP five year meeting will not be to far off. After those two events, all bets are off.

Probably only 100% vaxx certified applicants need apply.

So how come TSA workers who are exposed to the public every day are not dropping dead by the thousands?
Natural immunity?
90% never get sick in the first place?

Hire the afghans as TSA agents?

Of course, that would solve the problem, especially since none of them are required to be vaccinated or tested for Covid.

I think you have to realize that the unions are being duplicitous. In public they appear to go-along with the decree; in private they are encouraging the absenteeism — or at the very least being hands-off about it.

You would have to get the provaxers to support the antivaxers rights. And they are just ignorant enough to trust this criminal agenda of culling and agree with it.

Besides... Maybe that supervisor they hate might get fired and they can get his job. From the bottom to the top it is all about greed and ignorance.
