Members of the aerospace, distribution, defense and trucking sectors are warning the Biden administration they will not be able to meet its vaccine deadline

Objections among certain vendors over President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for federal contractors are reaching an inflection point. As the deadline for workforce vaccination approaches, some trucking companies are mulling whether to end their work with the federal government altogether, according to two industry insiders.

The demands have led to a notable uptick in the vaccination rates across various industries. Public health officials have credited them with helping the country stem the spread of the Delta variant. And the White House points to major companies such as United Airlines and Tyson that have seen overwhelming compliance among its workforce.

“So, these processes play out across weeks, not days,” Zients said in a news availability last week. “And so, to be clear, we're creating flexibility within the system. We're offering people multiple opportunities to get vaccinated. There is not a cliff here.” to extend the deadline to the first half of 2022, citing a likely disruption to services that would only further aggravate supply chain delays should companies be forced to impose the employee vaccine mandate.

Aerospace? Really! I want a government job in Aerospace! Fire and then Rehire!

中共自稱中國特色社會主義含義:拒絕世界大同,明確告知人類中共的存在就是阻礙人類發展世界大同。中共從來不悔改不會改不認罪,中共是人類世界大同的敵人,人類發展的敵人,人類的敵人,消滅中共對人類發展有利替天行道有福報

That’s hysterical 😂. These industries are super-glued to the government teat and their lavish contracts. Ending those contracts would end these companies.

I'm amazed at how many people still believe that this vaccine actually prevents transmission/infection. It does not, it never claimed to. It's only claim was and is that it mitigates symptoms if and when you contract it. It does nothing to protect someone else.

Religious. Exemption.

We live in the stupidest country on earth
