Much of the coverage is distorted and focuses on the small percentage of employees who are fired compared to the many people who got vaccinated.

In San Francisco, the immunization rate among city workers spiked from 55% this summer to 94% as of last week.
Walnut Creek, CA went from 65% to 86%.
San Jose went from 84% to 93%.https://t.co/G1EybHIpoN
Vax rate in NYC agencies with a mandate in place:
— Mark D. Levine (@MarkLevineNYC) October 10, 2021
* Dept. of Ed – 95%
* Public hospitals – 93%
Rate in agencies without a mandate:
* Children's Services – 69%
* NYPD – 68%
* Homeless Services – 65%
* EMS – 60%
* FDNY – 59%
* Corrections – 49%
The lesson is clear. Time to act.
NEW: United Airlines now says *even fewer* workers are resisting its vaccine mandate— terminating only 232 of 67,000 workers. 300+ either uploaded records late or changed their minds and got vaccinated (!) when faced with the start of the firing process.
