“Herd” immunity is the immunity a population has that has either innate or acquired immunity. Acquired immunity comes from antibodies, which could be from vaccines or having had the illness already.

We are only discussing acquired immunity here.

And the only way to acquire immunity is through exposure.

That exposure can take place naturally, or artificially via a vaccine.

My point, which you either missed or ignored, was that regardless of whether exposure is allowed to spread naturally through “the herd”, or whether it is administered artificially via a vaccine, it is ultimately our body’s immune response to exposure that does the work to make us immune.

The biggest differences between the two approaches:

1) Acquired “herd immunity” through natural exposure has a ten million year record of proven success, whereas vaccination does not.
2) Big Pharma can patent and profit from a vaccine, and Big Government can make it mandatory. Whereas natural herd exposure can’t be controlled or patented - so it is of no use to fascists.
