Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone's been in the same situation as this and if you have any advice.
My mum is the FT carer for dad who is in the advance stages. I go in twice a day to help with his personal care at the moment as she doesn't want agency carers coming in while covid is about.
I'm absolutely thrilled that there's a vaccine and have been waiting eagerly for dad's call up (though he's housebound so we'll have to probably wait til they can do it like a visiting flu jab). I was discussing it with my mum a few days ago only to find out she's fallen down a youtube conspiracy rabbit hole and has decided the jab is unsafe!! She doesn't want it for herself (though she's in her 70s and has a pre-existing lung condition) and doesn't want dad to have it either.
I'm really frustrated and sad about it all. I don't know what I can do to convince her and I am so furious at those maliciously creating false information. Any suggestions?
