Thanks for writing this up! I’m also in the process of figuring out an agreement with roommates and was curious about this part as I expect we might not all have the same initial take:
Shared spaces are a bit different. While we haven’t decided for sure yet, I think it’s probably going to end up being that you can invite anyone in who is fully vaccinated.
If I understand correctly, the tradeoff is between the benefits of everyone being to invite guests regardless of their vaccination status (and having one less ‘rule’ to think about) and the risk of 1) someone in the house contracting Covid 2) someone in the house transmitting Covid to people outside the house.
For your group, would you say it’s primarily 1 or 2 that would push the agreement toward the version you describe? Are you considering similar agreements for other infectious diseases (I guess influenza is the most obvious one with a mix of vaccinated and unvaccinated people in the population)? Is your group considering any distinctions based on the reason someone hasn’t been vaccinated?
