Those populations can get the vaccine if they want. We don't need to in order to protect them.



Let people decide if we want that or not. It's not the government's place to force us to take a vaccine so we can be spared from side effects that may or may not occur.



So override the population's rights so that you can make others feel better? That is authoritarian and absolutely horrible.

And btw, you don't need to worry about the economy. Open up and people will push each other out of the way to spend money and go to concerts etc... Look at the Texas Rangers home opener - sold out.



?? So we have to force everyone to get vaccinated to make sure some people don't fake it?


Your reasons are very authoritarian and you would do well in a country like China. I'm baffled at how many Marxists/Collectivists live in the USA.
