Fully Vaccinated Southwest Airlines Flight Attendant Dies From Covid-19

A fully vaccinated Southwest Airlines flight attendant who religiously wore a face mask, constantly washed his hands and sanitized surfaces died from Covid-19.

36-year-old Maurice “Reggie” Shepperson died on Tuesday after battling Covid for a month.

Southwest Airlines confirmed Shepperson passed away in an email sent to Fox News.

“We are heartbroken over the loss; the Southwest Family is supporting each other, and our Employee’s family, during this difficult time,” the airline’s statement said. “Out of respect for Reggie’s family, we do not have additional details to share.”

USA Today reported:

A Southwest Airlines flight attendant based in Las Vegas died Tuesday from COVID-19, according to his family and co-workers.

Maurice “Reggie” Shepperson, a native New Yorker whose brightly colored pants earned him the nickname Skittles during training in 2014, tested positive for the coronavirus in early July and had been fighting it in a hospital for a month, according to Marcia Hildreth, a Southwest flight attendant who called him her best friend.

He was on a ventilator and died early Tuesday, his mother, Dawn Shepperson, told USA TODAY. A nurse told her it was from COVID-19.

Shepperson, 36, was fully vaccinated, his mother and Hildreth said. He loved to fly and took every precaution, wearing a mask, constantly washing his hands, sanitizing surfaces and wiping everything down in hotel rooms, Hildreth said.

Southwest Airlines has decided not to mandate Covid vaccines for their crew members.

Jen Psaki TAKING NEXT WEEK OFF Amid Afghanistan Fiasco

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki is taking the next week off work amid the crisis in Afghanistan.

Joe Biden, who is on vacation, has still not addressed the public about the foreign policy nightmare underway in Kabul.

Questions sent to Psaki are being met with an autoreply saying that she will be out of the office through August 22.

“I will be out of the office from August 15th-August 22nd,” the auto reply email being sent to reporters reads.

Apparently, the ultra-progressive press secretary has opted to throw Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who is black, to the wolves for the week instead.

Afghanistan’s new de facto leader Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar issued a victory message to his fellow Taliban on the declaration of the “Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan” on Sunday.

Mullah Baradar’s statement was given from the presidential palace in Kabul.

“We have achieved an unexpected victory,” he said. “Now is the time to test, to show how we serve our people and ensure their future in the best possible way.”
