No. That’s multiple households, not just two households. Not in line with cdc guidance.


Sort of. FIL and girlfriend don’t live together but don’t see anyone other than my DH (or when they have dr. Appointments). My daughters live alone but generally don’t see others and if they do, they have isolated and tested before seeing us. It probably is multiple households but also pretty low risk. Part of me thinks it is fine and the other part thinks we have made it this far, why chance it.


Your reasoning is BS. It is multiple households. It does not follow cdc guidance


This. Plus, there are newer strains now circulating that are not covered by the vaccine. It's all about level of risk and I would not go beyond CDC guidelines.

You're definitely ridiculous


I disagree. We are not going to the Seder for our family. They were OBSESSED with getting vaccinated and few jumped the line. They are obsessed with their own safety, but seem quite flippant with ours. No thanks. Have fun.

I know people think it's hysterical to feel uneasy in that situation. But I'm with you, OP - we are so close to all being vaccinated. I would wait. Seders are long and loud, with lots of booze, and it just seems like if there's any kind of gathering that could lead to the unvaxxed people getting sick it's that.

I just feel like how effing bad would you feel to get covid NOW when the end is in sight.

On the other hand, given the seder's story - perhaps g_d would spare you covid this year. Leave a mark on the door!

My parents are vaccinated and we are not. If the weather is good we will still be outside on the deck. We are in our 50's...no other risks but not that young. Not sure what I would do OP. I do not think you are nuts for staying home. Are they close by where you could have a short visit after dinner?

I would go. You don't have to wear a mask because they can't get anything from you. They don't have to wear masks because (in theory) you can't get anything from them. Then tell us in two weeks if you actually got sick. It will be a nice controlled test for us.

'course if you don't want to go, you have an excuse.

We are going to do an in person seder this year with 3 people who have been fully vaccinated, while DH and I have not been. But the 3 people are still largely staying home (2 are in their 80s) so the chance of them exposing us is very low, and the chance of us exposing them is likewise low and because they've been vaccinated it's low risk.

But it was my idea as one of the unvaxxed. If you don't want to do it then don't. We all have different risk profiles and I think it's a low risk activity but your health profile and other factors may make it a different scenario for you.
