But this was also the point of the lockdown or self-isolation:
IF people had strictly complied for a matter of only about 2 weeks, the same lack of hosts could/would have occurred.
Besides, herd immunity to COVID-19 is still only a theory. Nobody knows whether or not there is actually any immunity at all, and if there is, how long it lasts.
Other nations seem to have had very good results with their strict lockdown strategies, such as South Korea & Greece.
