Here’s a thought....
Wouldn’t we want to work on building as much Covid herd immunity as possible over the summer months in the US?
I say that as, in theory, the virus doesn’t seem to like UV/sunlight, heat or humidity. People are also more active.
www.usnews.com...
Wouldn’t this lend to people getting milder cases, having a higher probably of beating the virus and thus building herd immunity? It seems to be
common belief that the Covid won’t “go away” so people should still be getting/spreading it the summer.
If you look at the charts of the Spanish flu... no matter how or when they enacted social distancing most cities had come way way down off the curve
by February... and the area with the strictest social distancing actually still experienced a peak because no herd immunity via social distancing:
www.nationalgeographic.com...
Virus hit early in the season and was going away as the seasons changed... and herd immunity was developed...
I say this as POTUS extends the federal social distancing policies indefinitely and the plans to reopen state economies are pretty small in scope and
really don’t speak to being “open” with a lot of social interaction possibly into the summer. ...
Makes me consider that if the lockdowns continue into summer months it could be another way of demonstrating that this lock down is about control and
they have no interest in us actually - in the near future - returning to an existence that’s similar to what we had previously. Or actually
developing herd immunity...
Eigh?
