I'm not a pilot. I do know that aeronautical pursuits involves science. Ergo, I would have thought that pilots would trust science more than say Tarot card readers or water diviners. From an SLF perspective, I'm more than happy that Qantas is mandating this. Any pilot that believes so strenuously that "Karen from Facebook" has all the answers when it comes to vaccines is not the dude I want behind the yoke when I am in the back. If a failure of some sort occurs, I want the crew to consult the aircraft manual for the correct procedure to fix the issue, rather than instead decide that there was a you-tube video last week from a 13 year old that showed an alternative solution, and we'll take their advice.
