Great news from new Oxford study. #HerdImmunity Threshold (HIT) is 10–20%.
“HIT may be greatly reduced if a fraction of the population is unable to transmit the virus due to innate resistance or cross-protection from exposure to seasonal coronaviruses.”

“seropositivity measures of 10-20% are entirely compatible with local levels of immunity having approached or even exceeded the HIT”
#HerdImmunity is the solution and it has already been achieved in many places, such as NYC, Madrid, London, etc.

“Significant reductions in expected mortality can also be observed in settings where a fraction of the population is resistant to infection.”
Will governments finally embrace herd immunity instead of talking about masks all day long?
