when he said “herd immunity” I thought well that’s a crock.

Wait. Do I understand you’re stating that “herd immunity” is an invalid concept?
Son is microbiologist and that’s *all* he talks about when discussing covid - well that and how masks harbor bacteria and impede proper oxygen intake - and the importance of exposure to build immunity.
“Wait. Do I understand you’re stating that “herd immunity” is an invalid concept?”
No. We achieved herd immunity with diseases like polio, smallpox, measles, mumps with vaccinations.
We can never achieve herd immunity with the common cold or influenza, as I understand it, because it is constantly changing.
That’s all I’m sayin’.
