A batch of crew shortages has caused ferry cancellations for the Steamship Authority (SSA) on Tuesday afternoon.
The passenger ferry Island Home’s 1:15 pm departure from Woods Hole and its 2:30 pm trip from Vineyard Haven were both canceled due to a crew shortage.
Farther east, the passenger ferry Eagle’s 2:45 pm departure from Hyannis and the 5:30 pm departure from Nantucket were both also initially canceled because of a crew shortage, but the absent worker eventually arrived, and the trips ran on a delayed schedule — a 45-minute late start for the 2:45 pm departure, and a 30-minute delay for the 5:30 pm departure.
“One crew member on each vessel,” SSA communications director Sean Driscoll told The Times. Driscoll would not disclose what category of crew member was absent.
Meanwhile, there was also a short delay for the 2:30 pm departure from Woods Hole, due to a U.S. Coast Guard drill.
I dont recall staffing shortages being an issue in the days before that ridiculous and unconstitutional covid vaccine mandate.
How many SSA crew quit due to the unconstitutional covid vaccine mandate?
How many have the SSA refused to rehire?
How many judges have ruled the the covid mandate is unconstitutional?
Are you the only judge that has so ruled?
Your anti-vaccine trope is getting threadbare.
Find a new gig.
So far, the courts have not agreed with you.
“—But in blunt language, Judge Stearns rejected the claims on every level.
“Undergirding much of the plaintiffs’ quest for injunctive relief is the scientifically unsupportable theory that the Covid-19 vaccines are, at best, wholly ineffective or, at worst, a hoax. Indeed, plaintiffs refuse to even recognize the vaccines as vaccines,” the judge wrote.
“At the extreme, plaintiffs advance the fabulous proposition that vaccinated persons are at higher risk of contracting Covid-19 than those who are not . . . It is a matter of utmost urgency that these dangerous and fallacious assertions be laid to rest.”
