Are you talking about your country that has had kind of a disastrous vaccine rollout? I'm talking about the USA, as I have already said a couple of times. Besides, forcing people to wear masks in the USA or forcing them to get vaccinated isn't really going to help Canada very much.

Or are you talking about the group of people who are not candidates for vaccination even if it were available to them (allergic to an ingredient, or something)? It is unfortunate if you are in this group of people, but the entire world cannot shift gears to protect you from your medical condition. It's like people with peanut allergies. I most certainly wouldn't intentionally open up a bag of nuts anywhere near them. I would do what I could to bring attention to their condition and to protect them. But I wouldn't support banning peanuts worldwide to accommodate them either. Because then the next person would show up with dairy allergies and then we'd have to ban milk and cheese. Then the next would show up with a shellfish allergy and there goes our shrimp and lobster. Next would be the person with grain allergies and we'd have to ban a whole lot of stuff to accommodate them. The point is, you do everything you reasonably can, but you have to stop when it gets unreasonable. And forcing people to wear masks forever, or forcing them to get vaccinated falls into the unreasonable category. Very unfortunate for those that are affected. But that's the way life is - not always fair.
