Now it hits close to home

Figuratively, not literally.
Mrs. Spiff, her sister, and her sister's husband were going to go to eastern Tennessee to visit my parents-in-law this weekend. The trip got cancelled yesterday because both of the parents came down with COVID. Both have now tested positive.
FIL age 84, got the vaccine some time ago. MIL, age 78, did not, saying all along it was a hoax. She was the first to show symptoms - the loss of smell and taste, and start of congestion. Her lungs aren't in the best of shape to start with.
As of last night, FIL has what he describes as a bad cold, but otherwise he's ok. MIL is now bedridden and is barely making it to the bathroom. And she still thinks it's a hoax, nothing more than an extremely bad cold.
Prayers for them would be appreciated, and please keep the politics out of this.
