Answers:

The current latest version of hiredis 2.0 provides wheels for Python 3.6-3.9 but not 3.10 or later. Use lower version of Python.

Or install Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 to compile C/C++ extensions.

The current version of redis does not support Python 3.10
Try using lower versions of python
