[quote=Anonymous]Hmm. It's a judgment call - I would understand you taking really any of the options here (anything from &quot;whatever&quot; and just visiting, to putting your foot down and saying no vax, no visits).

Personally, I would say that as long as both she and my kids were unvaccinated, I would only visit under one of three conditions (one of, not all three):

1) Both families were able to fully quarantine for 7 days before the visit, with a test on day 5. 
2) The visit was outdoors, distanced, and masked. 
3) Community spread dropped such that in both your state, and her state (and, if you need to fly, the country as a whole) dropped to &lt; 10 in 100k new cases per day, using the 7 day rolling average. Right now, just for a bench mark, DC/MD/VA have been floating in the 15-18 range, and the country as been around 17-18. The highest states (NJ and NY right now) are at about 40, and the lowest states (HI) are at like 5.

Sounds like option 2 is out if they're far away. If she was willing to quarantine, and you could trust her to do so, I would do option 1 even though it's a big sacrifice for your family. I mean, it's your mom! But I would be clear with her that this isn't something you can do super often, so this is probably it until cases get low.

Other than that, I'd wait and go with option 3. I would guess most, if not all, of the country will be there by late summer. [/quote]
