Just a short update this week.
Vaccine
As far as we can tell, air traffic controllers fall into the next tier, Phase 1 Tier B2, estimated to start on Wednesday March 17th.
1B2 is defined as: critical workers who work in certain congregate settings: Agriculture; fishing vessel crews; food processing; grocery stores; corrections; prisons, jails or detention centers; public transit; remaining first responders.
Basically, we make up such a small specialized section of essential workers that we’ll more than likely never be mentioned specifically. We definitely want everyone that wants it to be vaccinated but try and work with your crew when possible to limit overlap.
If you are a veteran, you can go through the VA to get a vaccine regardless of job, co-morbidities. Puget Sound VA link for more info.
If you find out any useful covid vaccine leads, tips, tricks, etc. that you want to share with everyone else, please let us know so we can spread the word.
Thank you,
Derek Adams and Amy Sizemore
