I tested Michael Levitt's theory that saturation to achieve herd immunity is as low as 30%

I multiplied each state's confirmed cases by 10 for asymptomatics, and then doubled that number for T-cell immune response to get a total of visible and invisible cases.

Then I divided that number by each state's population to get covid 19 saturation percentages.

3 states with highest spikes in new cases

Florida 15% saturation level
Texas 12%
California 7%

3 States with no spikes in new cases

New York 41% saturation level
New Jersey 38%
Massachusetts 31%

I'm starting to think Michael Levitt of Stanford is a very smart guy who deserved every bit of his Nobel Prize.
