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.

I will make this real easy for you. Forget all the competing theories and models and highly technical science studies. Take a look at this chart that shows the death totals per day of Sweden superimposed over New York. New York's death rate was 3 times higher but that does not matter, this is not a "who did better" question.
New York enacted a severe lockdown on March 14 and recommended everyone to use masks two weeks later. Their deaths went up rapidly anyway, peaked, and then started going down.
Sweden stayed open, did not lockdown or recommend masks, just advised mild social distancing. Their deaths went up rapidly, peaked, and then started going down.
In both places this rise and fall took the same amount of time. In both places there is no new surge, and deaths and cases are close to zero.
Tell us in your own words how this could happen. Even a dumbo can figure this out. I am not calling you a dumbo, just using it in general like you did.
