Not everybody agrees

 

IN my opinion, this is a great idea.  Apparently, as the title says, not everyone agrees with me.  But I'm keeping this opinion. 

Delta Air Lines to impose monthly charges on unvaccinated employees

"Starting November 1, 2021, Delta Air Lines employees who are unvaccinated against COVID-19 and are enrolled in the company’s health plan will be charged a $200 monthly fee to help maintain costs associated with preventing the spread of Coronavirus among its workforce.

Delta Air Lines Chief Executive Ed Bastian wrote to their employees on Wednesday August 25, 2021, that the $200 monthly charge “will be necessary to address the financial risk the decision to not vaccinate is creating for our company.”

Ed Bastian also adds that 75% of Delta Air Lines employees are vaccinated, an improvement from 72% in mid-July.

A Delta Air Lines spokesperson said that the average hospital stay for COVID-19 has cost the company $40,000 per person."


Other corporations should consider similar, because insurance costs money for corporations, and hospitals cost money spent to help make people healthy, or keep them alive.
