Force the anti-vaxxers to get it or let it burn through them like wildfire. I don't get why the rest of us get to have our very own lives restricted yet again. This is nonsense.
I really don’t think it matters if everyone was vaccinated — as this virus is spreading through vaccinated people.
We did all that was required, and we got 90% of the eligible population vaccinated. There are some anti-vax holdouts, but there are other groups not vaccinated, for example, First Nations population for one and for good reasons, they don’t trust government. Same applies to minorities and marginalized people.
But as I said, even if everyone was vaccinated, we’d still have high numbers as cases appear to be the same (per 100k) regardless of vaccination status. There is a difference with hospitalizations, but that’s it.
