If someone vulnerable, like your MIL, is vaccinated then why are you so worried about your family? Are any of you high risk or vulnerable? If not, what's the issue?

Well, I don't think anyone, even those who aren't high risk, want to get COVID. We just don't know enough about whether vaccinated people can still harbor and transmit virus even if they don't get it themselves, so while it's definitely a huge help to have a vaccine, it's best if people visit with those who are ALSO vaccinated for now.

My parents are vaccinated and my immediate family is not. We visit with them and don't obsess about the minuscule risk of doing so. Different strokes for different folks. So none of this "anyone" and "we" since you don't speak for all.

For us, it’s a no. We have a high-risk kid and vaccines have only shown to prevent transmission around 70%. No grandparents for us until my kid can get vaccinated because our parents (& grandparents) haven’t exercised caution the vast majority of the time since the pandemic started.

My pediatrician ok'd hugs and interactions from a nonmasked vaccinated grandparent, understanding that the risk isn't zero.

What they don’t want is Covid why are people like you such jerks.

This. It will take two minutes at your nearest Walgreens and is painless to sign up for. After her test, isolate, but that’s a couple of days.

I would have her take a covid test before she visits.

+1

Additional to what? No conditions? No precautions?

She's vaccinated!! She fine

Most doctors/scientists are in agreement that the vax prevents transmission in addition to infection. CDC just hasn't officially declared it yet.

Really? Can you find one source that conclusively states the vaccine does not and will not reduce transmission? Not a source that says studies aren’t done or aren’t peer reviewed or we just don’t know yet. No experts genuinely believe that the vaccine will not reduce transmission. There are TONS of citations for this, there’s no point in linking them if you refuse to even google “does covid vaccine prevent transmission” and see for yourself that the overwhelming evidence suggests it does.

So now it’s “unhinged” to be able to read and digest scientific studies? Ok... you carry on thinking whatever crap you think.
