Should I spend an afternoon in my apartment with 3 nvaccinated people?

Dear @rits, You have a real dilemma because you do not want to offend your visitors, or appear overly paranoid! Here is a dilemma for everyone reading this: My last appointment with my PCP was one week ago. The nurse had a mask on and I commented to her about how she must be tired of wearing one. She answered that she will continue to wear one because she refuses to get vaccinated!!! I feel angry that this nurse is compromising my life because of her decision. On the same token, these guests have their beliefs, and you have a right to yours. You state that your friend takes you to all your appointments, so you are already exposed all the time. The friend's niece will be tested at the airport. You are very close to your friend, and she sounds like a very wonderful person. You have already exposed and are exposing yourself every-time she drives you to an appointment. Either stop accepting the friend's help, or go along with the visit! Do you have an opinion about the non-vaccinated nurse at my PCP's office? I hope your visit is a fun time!

Thsn6k you for responding and setting out my dilemma so well. As for exposure from my friend, I isolated until January and we didn't see each other. In January, I had a medical crisis and needed her. After I was fully vaccinated, we began seeing each other again. I've known for a long time that she is an anti vaccer and we had many discussions re flu shots. What I didn't know until recently is that no one in her family, extended family or close friends is vaccinated! (And no one has had the virus. )
She is very protective of me and SHE has not decided yet whether this little party is a good idea.
According to the CDC recent guidelines for fully vaccinated, I can "attend a small indoor gathering of fully vaccinated and unvaccinated people from multiple households."
Hmm. A dilemma !

"Do you have an opinion about the non-vaccinated nurse at my PCP's office?" That is a very big question these days!
In our chiropractor's office, we have a few vaccine-resistors, fortunately not our doc, massage therapist of acupuncturist. But as a result the decision has been made that everyone will continue to mask for the foreseeable future.
I'm going to be talking to my sister today (an occupational health nurse) and will ask what guidance they are being given about handling vaccination status within their staff.
