  1. Ah, herd immunity. And they're sacrificing their elders and immune compromised to achieve it. Bravo.

  2. They're hoping enough people aquire the virus and overcome it, thereby creating herd immunity, which is the true definition of the term (68%, naturally aquirred pathogen, not from vaccination). They're also assuming at risk individuals can and will isolate themselves for months.

  3. Brazil isn't even doing as much as Sweden.

  4.  @TurinTuramber  I know, my sister and fam lived there for 3 years due to my brother in law's work. While there, she did an academic paper on the street children of Sao Paulo.

  5. Vaccines don't achieve herd immunity, that only occurs by 68%of a population naturally aquiring the virus and overcoming it. That's what they're going for, establishment of herd immunity and they're sacrificing their elderly and immune compromised to do so. A vaccine will take minimum 18 months (which isn't sufficient for proper safety testing btw) and will be too late. There are no successful vaccines that have ever been created for a Corona virus, including SARS and the common cold. There was in fact one developed for SARS but it killed the animals it was tested on.

  7.  @wildcrocus  Or are you saying some have had covid 2x? They likely never cleared it is my guess if we're going by Chinese reporting.

  8.  @wildcrocus  Has that been verified? Has it occured elsewhere?
