[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You shouldn't be mad at her for getting a vaccine.
That's her health and you should wish her the best in that matter.

You can be mad because she's leaving to go back home.
But either she's homesick or she wasn't happy with your family. There's not much you can do against that.[/quote]

there are many who still have not been vaccinated that actually need it, including childcare providers who are actually remaining in the job. [/quote]

Including my aunt who is a cancer survivor recently finished chemo. [/quote]

What does rematch and returning home have to do with getting a vaccine? I mean, maybe she waited until she had her second dose because if she didn't, it would be difficult to get her second in Brazil? It's not like this was an elaborate scam to come to the US on an aupair visa and try to get vaccinated and then return home.

Good for her for taking the vaccine when the opportunity arose. We all need to do so. Childcare workers including aupairs are qualified for a vaccine in some states or DC. I know two aupairs who were vaccinated because they waited at a Giant until closing time. Good for them!! I also know an LCC who sent our a letter which should be used to get vaccinated. She must have been unhappy and not shared that with her host family, which happens in the best of times, and should be addressed with the LCC. Being without childcare stinks and is stressful.

For anyone who can't find a vaccine appointment for someone who is qualified, I highly recommend going to Maryland Vaccine Hunters. They have apps which email you when an appointment opens up and people who can help. We got all of our household members who are eligible appointments over the last two weeks. it was actually easier than I thought it would be.  The shots are out there!

And for those judging because they don't think someone who isn't a citizen should be eligible, deserving or somehow was playing the system - I would seriously examine your own  bias. The fact is, she is an adult to accepted a vaccine. Unless she forged a letter saying she was a doctor, someone in the system chose to vaccinate her.  If you aren't in a priority group yet or you can't seem to find an appointmetn for someone who is, there are ways to help and people to talk to about the priority groups. Blaming someone for taking a life saving vaccine because you personally do not think they are 'deserving' yet is kinda ick.  In a year, we will be asking if aupairs are vaccinated before wanting to match with them.[/quote]
