They aren't going to listen to studies or stats. You won't win any argument by proving them wrong. Truth and logic won't work. The only way to win is to prove that you are safer than them. Stick to this one fact - The vaccines lessen the symptoms, so that when a vaccinated person catches Covid, their symptoms are less severe; they're less likely to clog up the healthcare system, and less likely to die. That's what the vaccines do. Again, the vaccines make the symptoms less severe when a vaccinated person catches Covid. - THEY STILL CATCH COVID AND STILL SPREAD COVID. - But when they do catch Covid their symptoms are less severe. The difference between vaxxed and un-vaxxed is that a vaccinated person is less likely to know they are contagious because the vaccine lessens the symptoms. *Go on the attack.* - THEY should not be anywhere near your mother because THEY will still catch and spread Covid. And not only will they catch and spread Covid - But because of the vaccine, they won't know if or when they are contagious because the vaccine lessens their symptoms. - *Repeat that over and over again.* If anyone says that you shouldn't be near your mother - *Go on the attack*. - THEY shouldn't be allowed near her. Yes, once per argument state that because you aren't vaccinated, you are more likely to have symptoms and know when you are infected and contagious. But only say that once per argument. For the entire rest of the argument, argue that they themselves are putting your mother at risk because of the vaccine, they will catch Covid and become contagious without knowing. Understand that by arguing this, you are not arguing that no one should be near your mother. Instead, what you are doing is destroying their *"safety argument"*. Because if they truly want to be safe - You being near you mother is far safer than them being near her.
