Herd immunity will be achieved when the virus has run it's course. Just because the CDC says that 70% must be vaccinated to achieve this, I don't believe them. The worst plague in history was the "Black Death" in the middle ages, and it just ran it's course and disappeared. Vaccinations weren't even in existence back then. So when the CDC makes recommendations, I take them with a grain of salt. There's money to be made with the vaccinations and I don't think they are as necessary as they are made out to be.
Like I've said before......I'm 73, and never had a flu, pneumonia, or shingles shot, and it's been at least 25 years since a tetanus shot.

Tell that to the people in India who are being asked to bury their loved ones in their back yards.......no room at the Inn so to speak.
