It all exists, not particularly common but betting it will become more and more common
While it is true that aged care workers require a flu shot, and many workers exposed to treated sewage require a number of vaccinations, these are mandated by a government authority, normally on the advice of independent medical specialists.

Unless Alliance have formed government, and consulted independent medical specialists, then what they are attempting is novel.

Whilst I am all for pilots getting vaccinated, I'd caution against supporting the power to mandate vaccinations being moved from a democratically elected government to a company.

Bottom line is if Alliance want to mandate Covid vaccinations for crew, then they are free to lobby the government to do so.
