Default When do we hit herd immunity?




The fact is we don’t really know. It’s a NOVEL coronavirus, so we don’t really know the seasonality of it in human populations and it’s increasingly clear we have no good estimate on how many have already been infected or precisely how long immunity will last for either infection acquired immunity or vaccine acquired immunity.

Our ignorance hasn’t stopped us from mandating some pretty drastic things like business and school closures that will have long term damaging effects though.
