ICYMI: Dr. Nicole Saphier Important look @ “herd immunity”

The CDC and subsequent statements by President Biden, including a tweet he sent that declared, “Get vaccinated or wear a mask until you do” set a treacherous precedent by indicating that only the vaccinated among us can return to normal life; affirming the vaccine as the only means to eliminating the pandemic.

This neglects the true definition of herd immunity where once a sufficient amount of the population has immunity, as demonstrated by declining cases, hospitalizations and deaths (and not the number of people vaccinated) the entire community can resume activities with low risk of transmission.

ThankQ, green eyes!

From the article:

“However, the CDC continues to offer little guidance about the unvaccinated including those who have recovered from infection and young children.
....
The wall of protection from the amount of natural immunity has consistently been ignored. To date, the amount of reinfections following natural infection are similar if not less than breakthrough cases after vaccination, demonstrating the robustness of natural immunity.

A study last month in The Lancet shows that people who recovered from a prior SARS-CoV-2 infection had an 84% lower risk of reinfection and a 93% lower risk of symptomatic infection. Some argue that this data only shows 7 months of follow up. They point out that how long the immunity lasts after infection remains unknown. But the same can be said of the COVID-19 vaccines, which also have limited long-term data. “

Biden ... (says) the vaccine as the only means to eliminating the pandemic.

According to Dr. Bhakdi, the pandemic should be considered "over". But (and it's a big "but") there is some really bad news for those who took the "vaccine"...

URGENT! Some good news and some troubling news, from Professor Sucharit Bhakdi, M.D.
