[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you're doing it right. Other people will do it their way. Our family has laid low for more than a year. My husband is a Ph.D. biologist who already had us locking down in February 2020 and was warning there was only a few weeks of in-person school left. He was right. Last summer, our excited was playing board games. No vacation, no pool, no camps, pretty boring. Online school only.

Three out of four of us are now fully vaccinated. The youngest is not. So while we are going out a bit more to shop, we are still using quite a bit of caution to keep the youngest safe. We won't let up until all of us are fully vaxxed. Just waiting on the FDA.[/quote]

Yes to this. Thank you![/quote]

Agreed. It's been a challenging year for everyone but we absolutely do not regret not catching it. Pre-pandemic, my mother died of pneumonia after catching strep, and the time she while she was hospitalized in the ICU (where she was intubated, on a ventilator, ECMO, and on dialysis, and receiving every possible treatment) was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. DH and one of my kids have underlying conditions making them at risk for severe illness from Covid and we were unwilling to take the risk just to have more daily socialization. My kids played with each other, did outdoors masked play dates, and stayed engaged during distance learning and with online camps. We will continue to be careful until everyone is vaccinated. No regrets.[/quote]
