Those requirements don't mean you can't work, but if you're not willing to follow them, then you have to accept there are certain things you might not be able to do. If I don't want to wear a safety harness I can't work at heights. There are lots of jobs that don't require safety harnesses, so I'm not barred from working.
Jobs that require you to sometimes use SCBA packs say you can't have a beard because otherwise the face mask won't seal properly. Doesn't mean you can't work in the tons of jobs where this isn't required.
There's a measles outbreak in the Maritimes that involves mostly unvaccinated kids, for pete's sake. Diseases that were thought eradicated such as polio are coming back because people don't want to vaccinate.
I have a brother that didn't want to vaccinate or wear a mask during COVID. So he just didn't go anywhere. His choice.

Yes, the main difference is that people are (a) backing their choice with pseudo science; and (b) claiming some sort of unusual duress from the "compulsion".
I'd like to practice dentristry. I have a pretty good tool kit. I just don't have a DDS or a licence. I'm compelled to get those apparently.
