Delta Airlines, Insurance Surcharges for Unvaccinated

Delta Airlines announced a $200 monthly surcharge on health insurance for unvaccinated employees, citing the high cost of COVID-19 hospitalizations. This move is criticized as a "slippery slope" that could lead to surcharges for other behaviors like smoking or obesity. The policy marks a shift from incentives to financial punishment for non-compliance.
