Why don’t you confront these “extended family members “ and say “dude & dudettes, you gotta wear mask all the time and get your feet off the pedal on these random visits or fuck off”?
My sympathies. Desi families can be very adamant. If you haven’t already, try fear mongering - examples of people you know you contracted COVID and are suffering long term, WhatsApp forwards, etc. It seems to work to some extent with that generation. Take care.
Parents are stubborn to not wear masks so they dont come off as "rude".
I've explained to my parents numerous times to follow the correct way of meeting family as these cases are rising. Im especially scared since this extended family constantly meets and mixes with other extended family. It just goes in one ear and out the other. And they keep repeating, "God will be by our side, just do prayers". like whatttt??? I am religious but we were born with a brain that God wants us to utilize. not blindly say religious words, close our eyes and ears and hope all bad things go away.
Im getting very frustrated and fear that if this continues, we're bound to contract the virus. From there, its pretty much a gamble on how your body reacts on the scale of " i dont feel sick" to "well shit, this is how im gonna go down?" Dont know what to do :/

Call these relatives and ask them to please not to come over. My parents do not live with me but I had to call my mom’s sisters and have this conversation so they’d stop meeting up with my parents. People got sad and upset but all this does not matter during a global pandemic
