Would you be comfortable letting unvaccinated adult family members stay overnight in your home?

[Anonymous]

Nope! But I can appreciate their honesty. I'm sure plenty of people are meeting up under the guide of having the shot, and they don't.

Another no. We have cousins and a niece who are currently refusing. I made lots of choices during the pandemic because I don't want to be a link in a chain that might leave me unscathed -- and maybe even completely unaware -- but could kill someone else who is more vulnerable. I'm not going to bless or enable anyone else deciding that their whims are more important than other's lives. There are people who can't get vaccinated or who don't develop antibodies if they do get vaccinated. I am not going to be part of supporting the selfish choices that are putting those people at risk

Already have.

No issues.

[Anonymous]

Sure, as long as they don't have the virus but even if you are vaccinated you can still spread the virus. But being unvaccinated does not mean that you have the virus.

[Anonymous]

I would.

Most of us that have been vaccinated/boosted already have waning immunity anyway.

We have some milestones coming up and I know a friend, who is unvaccinated, will expect to be included. But we can't do it. There will be seniors there and DH understandably wants to minimize all risks. Yes, vaccinated people can contract the virus and be asymptomatic, but the viral load that they would transfer would probably be lower than what an unvaxed person may do. I wish friend would get the shots, but has refused to do so thus far even though they are very strict in following mitigation measures.

DH wants me to tell friend "we would love to have you, but we can't under the circumstances." He thinks this will prompt her to take action, but I don't think it will make a difference. Sigh.

Don't have the party if you want to minimize all risks. Otherwise it's obvious your DH wants to punish people who make different choices than he does. What an ass.

Yeah, it's about being a moral scold, nothing to do with safety.

If you're vaccinated, unvaccinated people aren't a risk to you. They're the ones taking the risk.

No to your original question Op

[Anonymous]

No. Anyone could have it — even the vaxed.

[Anonymous]

NOPE

[Anonymous]

Nope. I honestly wouldn't want to spend any time at all with anyone still refusing the vaccine that has been fully approved and proven safe.

[Anonymous]

Stop asking these inane questions! Your house, your rules.

Don’t crowd source approval for your choice.

It won’t make a difference in your friend’s decision but DH is right to want to protect your guests. It’s a baseline expectation at social events we attend that everyone is vaccinated. Will you tell your guests that your friend is unvaxxed before the event?

[Anonymous]

Yes. I would. I don’t check for vaxx status because I’m not insane.
