However, actually taking this stance brings up so many other questions. Do we cut off care for smokers? Overweight people? Someone who hurt themselves doing a dangerous recreational sport? Do we use a rolling risk scale where we care for people only if their "risk score" falls below a certain level? And furthermore, they pay their taxes the same as you and I, so why would they be expected to get less services for their tax dollar?
I think as Canada we are bound to care for these people. I watched on the news last night the doctors admitting they are losing (ie: They have lost) compassion for these patients in ICU. One actually said they are now receiving requests by their patients in ICU to get vaxxed, which I found pretty funny. It's a little late by that point.
Polio polio... where art thou polio? Oh right... we were all vaccinated from it as children, without incident. Fancy that.
