[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP's DC is vulnerable given asthma - they should not be opening their arms as vulnerable populations are still supposed to isolate.  This is not a healthy, normal child.  This is a higher risk child.

I'm vulnerable given my asthma and am pregnant with SUA + low fetal weight on scans + high risk for pre-term labor + baby has potential heart issue/might need surgery at birth.  If my DH invited my MIL without consulting me, I'd actually consider divorce because he is putting my life and the life of child at risk which is appalling to me.  Thankfully, he told her she can't visit given the baby issues a month ago and instruction by doctors to not allow visitors indefinitely given heart issue; she was sad but understood.

I think the fact that your DC is vulnerable is what you need to consider the most.  How guilty will you, your DH, or even your MIL feel if your DC gets exposed?

Also, to add I have a MPH and work for a federal agency in public health policy who works day in and out on CV-19 response.  I might be overly cautious given what I work on daily all day.  [/quote]

I am not the OP - but my mom who is a little older than OPs sits home and listens for Fox News.   Remember - the narrative that they have been pushing.  A lot of this is based on inconsistent information / what you believe.

The Catholic Churches in VA have opened - even though spread in VA is high.   It is really hard to reconcile these data points.    Personally - I think the fact that the archdioceses of Arlington was one of the last to address abuse of it's priests is a major statement that they do not actually care about their parishioners - but rather care about $.     But as an outsider you have to look around you and assume that someone has evaluated the situation and said large indoor gatherings were fine.[/quote]
