My family damaged by the vax vs antivax conlict, help!

3 posts in this topic

I live with my wife and we have a 3 months old baby. I have a close relationship with my sister and she and her husband usually come to our house to have dinner and have a good time.

Mi sister is antivax, her husband is the typical guy who spend lot of time watching videos about the deepstate and all sort of conspiracies. Because they live together my sister has been slowly indoctrinated with crazy ideas. They guy says that the vax is a plan from the pharma lobby to make people chronically ill to make the buy their products forever.  And her social circle is hippie newage people and this also doesnt help. She says all her friends arent vaxed and are perfectly right. I ask her the typical, if all your friends jump off a bridge would you do the same?

My wife in the other side  is proscience provax. The other day she said that it's not a good idea that my sister come to our house because she could spread the virus to our baby... then they ended up having a  hard discussion and insulted each other. My sister said she is never gonna talk to her.

And I'm in the middle of the conflict. I'm not provax or anti, I think they are useful just when necessary.

I've tried my best to make my sister change her mind to be vaxed, but she seems to be living in a total different world or paradigm. I've sent her links and videos and she just ignores them. I feel so powerless and frustrated because I cant change her mind from this brainwashing.

The main worry is that by her bad decisions she could become infected by covid and be very sick, or even die, because she's very skinny, vegan, and had anorexia when young.

I love her with all my heart and I dont want her to end up in a hospital sick. I wish I had speaking skills like Leo to convince her but I'm a quiet guy.

I think this is a big problem we are facing right now...
