It was estimated that herd immunity required about 90% of population to have been fully vaccinatted with 2 shots, or to have had an infection of the virus within the last three months and have recovered. This was before the Delta and Omicron strains.
Also, the Omicron variant has mutated into four strains with the BA.2 strain showing that it is far more infectious as well as more virulent than the BA.1 strain. At the present time, little is known about the relative infectiousness or virulence of the BA.3 and BA.4 strains. And the Delta variant has not entirely vanished, but has also mutated into more than 200 sub-strains.
Currently, only 82% of Japanese have had their first dose, and 77% have had two. This is insufficient even for earlier strains.
Thats BS, we all know you can't get herd immunity with a non-sterilizing shot/treatment. The Herd immunity thing started out 75% here then it was 80% then it was 85% then 90% for herd immunity, we all know they wanted 100% compliance.
Meanwhile in the entirety of Canada not one place will give you an antibody test or provide you with alternative non approved medicines that work. Follow the money.
