[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s your goal here? To not get covid? you’re flying and going to be exposed to so many people on the way there where you might get covid. Just accept that you might get covid either from the flight or your family and have a normal visit. Youre overthinking it. You also might not get it! I know people who traveled who didn’t [/quote]

Agree with this person, you have to decide what your goal is. It's obviously not to never expose yourself to covid because you are flying with your whole family and are willing to go to public places while there. So, why wouldn't you also see your other unvax family members? They are probably not any more likely to have or spread to you. You yourself noted that you are boosted and also had covid, so you know that vaccination doesn't mean you won't get or spread covid. Now if your goal is to protect your unvaccinated family members from something you might bring to their house with all of your travels, then you should limit your contact so that you don't spread anything to them. And testing would help with that. If your goal is to make a political statement, then use some of the tactics others here have suggested about making your stance known.

Personally, I've stopped caring about vaccination status. If you choose not to be vaccinated you are at a higher risk of complications from the disease that is circulating everywhere. That's a terrible choice. And some times I lie away wondering about the guilt I would feel if my (vaccinated) child exposed my unvaccinated father and he died - but ultimately, I cannot control other people I can only control myself, so I'm not going to shoulder that blame. Seeing family is important to me, so while I will be as careful as possible and test before going to my parents house, I won't stop seeing them just because of their choice.[/quote]
