So we're above 80% "immunity"? Wasn't that the magic goal for ending lockdowns and "passports"?

More than 83 percent of Americans had COVID-19 antibodies before the surge of the Delta variant began, according to a new study of blood sample specimens by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)....
...The authors wrote that "estimated SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence weighted for differences between the study sample and general population increased from 3.5% in July 2020 to 20.2% for infection-induced antibodies and 83.3% for combined infection- and vaccine-induced antibodies in May 2021."...
..."Despite weighting to adjust for demographic differences, these findings from a national sample of blood donors may not be representative of the entire US population," the study's authors cautioned.
Administration of the COVID-19 vaccine began on December 14, 2020 and is ongoing with 74.5 percent of the population aged over 18 having received at least one shot....

Just stating what the counterargument will be from those pushing the shot with chemicals (it isn't a vaccine).
I wouldn’t believe statistics from this group if they had numbers showing water is wet.
Stares aren’t the only things in dire need of an audit.
So are CoupFlu stats.
Impressive how?
Since they’ve been bleeping with the denominator, makes sense they’d have to goose death stats up, not down in order to make the scamdemic scarier...
Justifiably so. Go read this one if you haven’t, it is brilliant.
Why Don’t They Believe Us?
You’re struggling to understand where all this vaccine hesitancy comes from. Let me help you.

So it’s over because we’re at herd immunity.
My wife and I had COVID in March. She was very sick for 2 weeks, I was somewhat less sick. Lost taste and smell for an extended period and all that. Got tested, was positive, quarantined and all that.
We just recently got tested for antibodies. We don’t have any.
[shrug] What are you gonna do? Did we have the flu in March? Was that a false positive? Or was the antibody test a false negative? Do they want 100% of the people to get the jab, and so do an elevated number of antibody tests come back unaccountably negative?
I trust no Earthly things at this point.

I have asked several people in the medical field what is the percentage of people who have recently fought/been hospitalized for Delta-Covid who had natural antibodies from having covid previously. I hear a lot of “unvaccinated” versus vaccinated but there is no number of how many people had natural antibodies from previous infections who were not seriously ill from this strain.
What type of antibody test is the article talking about, the T-cell one that can tell if the infection occurred months previously?
If so, then that may be the one that people would get, rather than the IgG IgM 15 minute test.
“Or was the antibody test a false negative?”
You had the ChiCom Virus but the anti-body test isn’t very accurate over any significant amount of time and can’t show your body’s molecular response and t-cell ability to fight it off again.
It’s limited and experienced the same thing with a recent anti-body test. A t-cell test may show better results but its time-limited too.
“An acquaintance of ours is in the hospital with covid. He had covid last year as well.”
Age and weight, plus any other underlying health issues?
This information is important for people to know.

.
for wild, Wuhan Original Recipe, it was 80% minimum. For Delta, it needs to be 90%. For a livestock herd it should be 95%, for comparison.
It’s been 5 months since you were sick.
Did you have the cPass test?
