We already know that there is **** all herd immunity in the
places stupid enough to just let the virus rip like Sweden.

Michael Osterholm, of the University of Minnesota's CIDRAP, has
pointed out
that rosy predictions about herd immunity were blown out of the water
by what
happened in prisons, where the virus didn't slow down until nearly
all the
prisoners had been infected.

A captive population is not a good sampling group for measuring any
sort of prediction.

Thats bull**** with the question of whether herd immunity works.

It is in fact the best group to use for measuring that.

Herd immunity happens in an open environment


It actually happens in ANY environment.


Evidently, it doesn't.


Of course it does. You have to get something like 80% who have caught
the disease or who have been vaccinated to see it under control.
