RE:Israel 60% fully vaccinated yet cases surging...
RE:Israel 60% fully vaccinated yet cases surging...Six months ago experts believed that 70% or 75% vaccinations
would create herd immunity
Sadly the Delta variant seems to be 8 times more transmissible.
I am not a medic but just looking at numbers I now think that
we may need over 90% of people to be vaccinated in order to
get herd immunity. I read somewhere that measles, which is highly
transmissible, requires 97% of people to be vaccinated.
60% or 70% will not save us. This is certain.
85% maybe but probably not??
Some parts of some southern USA states may be doomed for
several years. Sadly.
