Dear Miss Manners: My husband and I are expecting our second child. When I delivered our son, before the pandemic, there were no restrictions on visitors at our hospital, and any required and routine vaccinations were not an issue, despite known political differences among our family members.
Now, things have changed. My husband’s father, sister and her entire family refuse to be vaccinated against the coronavirus, despite several cases in the family — including our son, who was too young to be vaccinated and ended up at the hospital via ambulance.
My husband and I are both very confrontation-averse, but we are not comfortable having anyone who is not fully vaccinated at the hospital. I thought to send a full-family message, so no one will be singled out, stating that we would be happy to see them in person if they have received their Tdap and coronavirus vaccines, in line with hospital regulations.
I want to pair the vaccines in the message, because I know they all have their Tdap shots up to date, and it might soften the politics associated with the newer vaccine. Is there a polite way to set these boundaries?

Miss Manners: I Don’t Want Unvaccinated in-Laws to Visit Our Baby in the Hospital
PW Im the bride that insisted on charging all our friends and relatives $200 each to come to our wedding When I wrote to you told me I was an idiot.
Is she not vaccinated for all that?
A child carries the mother’s antibodies for quite some time after birth.
Whoops
PS
I have never been more glad not to be a woman than when I read about some of these brides and bridesmaids and the crazy goings on.
Gee, I sure hope they don’t raise another stupid person.
Skips a generation?
Hospitals decide
Meanwhile, the hospital is just chock full of vaxxed superspreader employees.
Two words for the person asking the question: nosocomial spread.
Jeez.
There's more of that crap going on than most would believe.
The kid is more at risk with the people who think they have been vaccinated with something that isn't a vaccine and appears to more harmful everyday to those who were jabbed.
She’s sticking it to them. Stinking it.
Either that, or very carefully selected and .... edited.
And a note to mom: If you’re vaxxed and you’ve decided to breastfeed, your in-laws might not be the people you need to worry about.
Who will raise your child when a blood clot from your fake vaccine leaves you dead or disabled?
Just go straight to the comments if you want to see the real crazies.
Little kids little lungs
they can go fast
She should avoid hospitals because all doctors, nurses and staff have had their shots and many STILL get COVID. The shots and masks and paper gowns won’t protect you and your baby, only delay the evitable.
Who will they hit up for a liver transplant if vaxxed mom harms her baby by breastfeeding him/her and the baby develops a case if that mystery pediatric hepatitis that is going around...
Yep. I had two sisters who never married or had kids. My only brother adopted 3 kids then had a daughter after 15 years of marriage. The three kids they adopted never married or had kids either. All had learning disabilities. My brother died in 1995 at the age of 51. Never got to see his daughter married, or the four kids she had. There's no big deal about my kid's last name either. Their father, my long-time ex was adopted too.
