A Review of COVID-19 Vaccine Use
and Adverse Effects in U.S. Commercial Airline Pilots

Safety Risks

78% of US Airline Pilots believe a significant safety risk exists.
Who is at fault?

While some airlines implemented mandates, others were mandated by the OSHA or Contractor provisions. The government mandates were overturned in court, yet a few carriers continued with private employer mandates. Meanwhile, many pilots blame their union, specifically the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) for not speaking out against the mandates. Over 80% of all U.S. Based airline, commercial, military, and corporate, respondents believe the FAA did not use due diligence in allowing vaccines without thorough testing.

Study Population

After culling the 1622 survey responses from pilots across all aviation sectors, the final sample includes 1132 responses from US Airline Pilots, as broken down below.

Cardiological Events

The pilots reporting cardiological events post-vaccination are spread across the airlines.

Cardiological Events Occurrence

Time to event varied by brand

Pilot Health Assessment Pre vs. Post Vaccine

Among those reporting Cardiological Events

Never Again

Based on the original study sample, 77% of US Commercial pilots say they will not get a booster.  Is the US facing a potential public health crisis?  It appears that the mandates and the subsequent adverse effects of the vaccines have caused pilots to lose faith in those who were charged with protecting them and the industry.

Data

These are just a few of the data highlights.  The report contains many other significant findings.

  • 1622 responses, Final Sample Size: 1132
  • Confidence Level: 99% (+/- 4%)
  • Vaccinated/Unvaccinated Ration: 50/50
    (U.S. Population is 80/20)
  • Pilots Reporting Adverse Effects: 23.22%
  • Pericarditis & Myocarditis rates exceed CDC's US Population mean (p=.0158739, SI.05)
  • Tinnitus rates are double the Pericarditis & Myocarditis rates

Recommendations:

Below are several recommendations explained in the text.

  • Establish a formalized pilot LTD tracking system.
  • Conduct FAA Medical Deferral data audit.
  • Conduct nationwide study of all US Commercial Pilots through independent third-party without interference from stakeholders.
  • FAA Form 8500 data collection.
  • Establish expedited Deferral/Special Issuance process for vaccinated First Class Medical Applicants.
  • Congressional oversight to ensure FAA establishes approval protocols for future vaccines.
  • Congress must ensure no EUA drug/vaccine is ever again mandated in a safety critical population.
