Just in case you need to hear it again - this is a great initiative and wonderful writing: I think (and hope) that the tone and content are just what people need to have/hear.

Thanks, these are wonderful. We have a child who is under 12 so can't be vaxxed, and parents who have had health issues... these boundaries help to protect them too.

This is a great set of scripts. Fortunately my side of the family are all vaccinated but my partners side aren't. He is somewhat vulnerable so we really need to be cautious.

Great advice, I ran these exact lines with a family member who is inexplicably coming to visit Wellington. Power in being clear and assertive. ( and wanting to fly before the airnz mandate kicks in)

That’s powerful Emily. One of my sons has mild asthma, my mother-in-law has COPD and I work in healthcare. My own mother has got caught up in the anti-vaccine conspiracy stuff and it’s so hard. We’re lucky to not have covid in our community (yet) but there is going to be hard boundaries to set soon 😢
