@drlucymcbride Agreed—just adding anecdotal evidence that even “worst case scenario” with a vaccinated grandparent is not actually bad. Especially amazed with vaccine performance since neither my husband nor I ever tested positive.
@ProfEmilyOster@drlucymcbride To the extent that anecdotal evidence helps—we did have things go wrong with grandparents, and everyone was still okay. My 2yo came down with a vaccine-resistant new strain the weekend that grandparents visited. Both eventually tested positive, but only experienced minor colds.
