On August 23, the BC government announced a vaccine passport. Everyone must show proof of COVID-19 vaccination to enter spaces such as restaurants, theatres, and sports centres.
Jarringly, there are no exemptions from the policy for people who can’t get immunized for medical or religious reasons.
The government is willing to punish medically vulnerable and disabled people through social isolation and exclusion in order to implement vaccine passports, a policy with questionable effectiveness at achieving the goal of ending the pandemic.
