How noble. Just understand that no matter what you do when they arrive, you are at risk for contracting COVID and dying, no matter what "mitigation" measures you take.
Spare me. You don't give a damn about me, and if I recall correctly you were one of those who was publicly downplaying the dangers of COVID right on this forum following Donald J Numbskulls lead. Half a million dead Americans later you are trying to do what here? ... scare me from answering my door?

People need to get vaccinated. Plenty of people are scared of it because they have been played by people like you. The vaccine is a positive good for the entire community, including you and including me.

The more people who get vaccinated the better off we all are, and it is always voluntary so the best we can do is make it easy for people and explain the benefits and risks. If going door to door is what it takes then damn it I applaud the people who are willing to do that and face off with the many naysayers and jackasses out there.

"Do you have a warrant?"

"No."

"You're trespassing. Get off my property."

What an ambiguous question.
Clarify the government official?
Johnny the grounds keeper at a federal memorial site?
Or Lisa who is a researcher in historic documents?
Really. The devil is in the details.
These types of polls really do need to be specific in the 'who, what, where,when'.
If you want to data mine for objective findings, use questions that are concrete,specific .

I'm going to answer in the mindset that: the USA government official is years in tenure on research and unbias study on vaccines. Who is directed to assist the public. Who is willing to answer educationally. Be it a shut in or a person incapacitated to go out and about.
So I see no harm , no foul if a person of govt level 'asks' if I would like more information or have concerns.
I don't live in the cancel culture of dismissing a person for clarifying.

I’ve got a can of bear repellent that we carry with us while walking the dog in case we encounter a coyote.

Might also come in handy if one of bidens agents comes knocking on my door

Yes. The government has access to everything in your life. They know what you do 24/7/365.

Don't you remember that medical records went digital under Obama ?

Not according to my family doctors. And I have a cousin who has severe diabetes and lost a leg because of blood clots and his doctor was very firm in him not taking the vaccine at all. So I will listen to my doctors over you!

There must be an ulterior motive.
If you haven't read Victor Klemperer's 'I Will Bear Witness', I think now is a good time. It's a perfect summer read (and may take the whole summer). An intellectual mentor from our Temple and I, read it simultaneously, and discussed, when we'd meet - while pedaling recumbent cardio bikes at the gym - what we were finding. The two-volume work, traces, at-length, Germany's gradual descent into Hell, during the Nazi years.

Klemperer and his wife live in "The Good Part of Germany", where Norse kindliness is the norm. And so, the gradual, deliberate, dehumanization-via-governmental-dicta of the nation, as imposed by a totalitarian and alien regime, stands apart from the nature of the people.

Everything happens against the will of the innately kind and fair people of Northwestern Germany. Yet, it happens. But we can see it more clearly, because it's happening within the context of a pro-Semitic population, rather than with the enthusiastic cooperation of an antisemitic populace.

Anyway, at one point, a team of experts comes to the Klemperers' home, to catalogue their books. It's been decades since the Molecular Biologist and I read the book. And I need to re-read, to remember the specifics. But you can be sure that hostile non-Western powers have read Klemperer, too (as they have clearly read everything about the Nazi era, looking for usable strategies).

It's only a matter of time.

This newest thing, is simply to soften us - to train us to accept intrusion into the most private aspects of our private lives.

What is wrong with this picture?
Can't seem to stop human trafficking or child pedophilia or making sure everyone has free chemo or epipens so people can be healthy and happy. All they care about is this covid, which you have a 98 percent chance of NOT getting it and a 99 percent chance of surviving it all on your own.
