How would a blind and deaf person achieve salvation?

People say to attain salvation we need to believe in God. To believe in God we need to read scriptures or atleast hear it.
If both are not possible how will a naturally blind and deaf person achieve salvation?

Let's say you have a young child and you are shopping with that child one day. The child steals a sweet or a toy from the shelf... is this child prosecuted for the crime they committed???

No, because the child is too young to understand that they committed a crime by stealing.

If we transfer this over to a deaf blind person - obviously they aren't hearing or reading scripture... but, does that mean that they don't believe in God??? Not necessarily. I mean, even hearing and seeing people have never seen or heard God himself - yet they have faith.

Deaf blind people could also have faith, too - but they're not able to communicate it in the typical ways... that's where it's important for God to look at them and judge them fairly on judgement day.
