So you vaccinate, and continue to social distance and/or mask inside buildings that aren't your own, until 80% of the population has been vaccinated. At that point, you can assume herd immunity has kicked in, and everyone's good to go.

Why does anyone have an actual problem with that?
So 80% of the population has to be vaccinated? How about 79%? Or maybe we need 81%. I don't believe that anyone actually knows when herd immunity kicks in if ever. So yes I have a problem with it.
