OK, if 10% has had a confirmed case (by positive test) and the real number of cases is 6 to 10 times many (as the "experts" estimate) - https://www.npr.org/sections/health-...than-you-think

then if 20% of the population is fully vaccinated, and another 60+% of the population has already had it, help me with the math - even with some overlap, how is it possible we are not at herd immunity right now?
Because something something science, something something Fauci, something something.

Duh.
