    Sorry. You're the only one who thinks that herd immunity is possible with Covid. It would be up to you to prove it. You've already proven that it did NOT take place in Japan. Wanna try for Sweden as well?

    Anecdotal evidence of repeat infections—is anecdotal evidence, and well short of ‘proof’. Given the ridiculously high rate of false positives with PCR tests, it’s more likely a case of being labeled positive the first time—when they weren’t actually positive.

    And without herd immunity there is no ‘stopping the disease’; how do you think vaccines work?

    Lockdowns, masks etc don’t stop anything: they only suppress the rate of infection *temporarily*. To whatever extent they are effective at that.

    FINALLY!!! We've gotten through to you.

    You do not know what worked in Japan. Some suggest they had a historical immunity from earlier viruses. Others suggest Japan's normal use of masks was the reason they were spared the worst of it.
    More than likely, it's due to the fact that Japan's lifestyle is the polar opposite of that of Americans. Their immune systems are clearly much stronger, and the absence of comorbidities likely has a lot to do with Japan's results. Americans are typically slobs that consume garbage every day as part of a regular diet.

    Exactly. And a mask greatly reduces the distance that those particles travel.

    Japan worked hard on contact tracing to block the virus. They wear masks militantly, and do not even get me started on how well they obey social distancing. None of this encourages herd immunity, but it does act to block the virus.

    What happened to the Spanish flu?

    You have a problem with the authors of the study and not me.

    They said HI was “a possibility”. Translation: they couldn’t rule it out.

    Of course my issue is with the study. You're the one pushing it as proof of herd immunity. It actually dispels that nonsense.

    If you were offered a vaccine that had the 'possibility' of working, and a probability of killing you, what would you do?
