“Herd immunity is not a strategy, it’s a biological fact.”
“The science, morality, and public health policy all point in the same direction.”
Public policy has been misguided, but there is still time to save thousands of lives.
The virus has an enormous weakness that we have thus far almost completely failed to exploit.
When about half the population has been infected (and recovered), we have achieved herd immunity. Those under 40 years of age make up over half the population, yet the virus is over 100 times less deadly to that portion of the population. Exploit this fact and defeat the virus!
It’s shameful, but current policy relies on blue collar workers to shoulder the burden of achieving herd immunity, while white collar workers stay home.
Congressmen who stay home hoping to wait out the virus are the most guilty of this selfishness.

This video made by public health experts from Oxford, Harvard, and Stanford explains how we can still save thousands of lives by switching public policy NOW.
@realDonaldTrump & Governors should listen to these scientists instead of political scientists.
