Can't see this as earth shattering, or something to brag about regarding predictions.
Seems pretty obvious to me.
Up, then down.
Just like the Stock Market.
Even a dumbo like me can work that out!

Another point of view regarding herd immunity.

Coronavirus: Spanish study casts doubt on herd immunity feasibility - BBC News
LOL I didn't just predict that cases would start going down, I predicted WHEN they would start going down, missed it by one day. Please quote anyone back in early July that predicted this. If it was so obvious why didn't you predict it?

As far as your link to the article about Spain, perhaps you did not read the NYT article I posted in the OP about antibody tests. They are not very accurate, some of them look for the wrong antibodies, or have poor calibration. Doesn't matter anyway, your T cells have long memories and can produce new antibodies when needed. Please actually read the article so you can understand.

Then read about T cells and immune responses here
