Can someone from the US take a trip to Canada specifically to get vaccines? I have lupus and I really don't wanna die from covid. I live in an area where people are ride or die Trumpers and don't give a shit about anyone but themselves.
Lupus is on the list of conditions that merit a vaccine for the under 65 crowd, since it is an autoimmune disease with immune compromising medications.
It's actually a pretty long list. Being overweight (BMI over 25), having ADHD, depression, being sedentary, being a current or former smoker, having substance misuse disorders, along with all the other ones you'd expect, like asthma, cancer, heart disease, transplant recipients, and anyone who needs a careworker.
As of now, you can self certify as being in one of these groups (you don't need a doctor's note). And your doctor can still recommend it for you if you're not on the list, as long as you don't have an anti vaxxer doc.

At the rate that things are devolving, if you have the means, you may consider emigrating somewhere else. And maybe not Canada because we'll probably be invaded by your country in the following years, or months.
I don't have the means to completely leave. I wish I did
Don’t say stupid shit like that.
Why not? I'm not willing to provide links for everything I'll list, so do what you want with it.
Democracy has failed in the US. They have a king with a dictatorship. They ignore their own laws. They kidnap law abiding citizens, on the streets, at work, in the schools, and send them into concentration camps. They kidnap people from other countries at the border. They invade their own cities with the military. They are sending a flotilla to Venezuela. They are renaming the Department of Defence to the Department of War. They have openly discussed invading Mexico. They have mentioned in the past that Canada should be part of the US. Maine's Senator sent an open letter to Western Canada and invited them to join the US, like, a week ago.
All this shit is normalized in the US. They just do it little by little and so far people don't react. They always say "Trump is joking" and "this will not happen" but it ends up happening every time.
Everyone knows that Mecha Mark Carney would rise up and repel an American invasion with extreme prejudice
It’s all nonsense and you normalize the conversation by saying bullshit like this.
And yet you are saying this in a thread about the US restricting access to some vaccines. It was all nonsense a few months ago.
Given the CDC leadership, it’s surprising that it’s still available right now
