    My brother attributes what sounds like Long Covid symptoms to a covid vaccine reaction, so he has said he’d kill me if I ever asked him to vaccinate again (we merely asked anyone visiting when our newborn was born, to have the Covid vaccine; he could have chosen not to visit).

    My dad gets so heated when we talk about politics that I know he wishes he could hit me again (we are both Venezuelans, he thinks Chavez basically raped and debased the country).

    I’ve gone no contact with my brother and I barely talk to my dad.
