Unvaccinated are putting healthcare system at risk

By Letter to the Editor on November 5, 2021.

Editor:
While I sympathize with some, not all, people’s aversion to COVID vaccinations, I strongly support mandatory shots in public places.
This not some simple flu but a deadly epidemic putting us all at risk. The intensive care units in our hospitals are full, staff over-worked and some patients have to be flown to other provinces.
Over 90 per cent of these people are unvaccinated.
Anyone who refuses the vaccine and puts the rest of us and our health system at risk should go to the back of the line when they contact the disease.
