Results of a nationwide COVID-19 antibody study indicate herd immunity"remains out of reach" in the U.S., with less than 10 percent of participants testing positive for proteins that could potentially offer protection from repeat infections.— conducted by Stanford University researchers in July and published by peer-reviewed medical journalon Friday— evaluated the presence of COVID-19 antibodies in blood samples from 28,500 dialysis patients across 46 states.
Based on the data collected, researchers estimate roughly 9.3 percent of the country's population had COVID-19 antibodies in July. Cross referencing its data with figures published by Johns Hopkins University, the study suggested just 9.2 percent of individuals with antibodies were formally diagnosed with the respiratory illness.
As of Sunday morning, Johns Hopkins University's ongoing COVID-19 tracker tallied more than 7 million positive cases reported in the U.S. since the pandemic began in March. Of those confirmed diagnoses, more than 204,500 people have died from the disease.
Studies show herd immunity might be at 20% not 60% as previously thought. So 10% in July, it's probably 15% by now? We are almost there.
Because we locked down for months...

Fewer than 10% in the US have antibodies to the novel coronavirus, study findsA nationwide study of the blood of more than 28,000 people found that, as of July, approximately 9.3% in the US had antibodies to the novel coronavirus. The numbers ranged from an average of 3.5% in the West to an average of 27% in the Northeast. So much for herd immunity! 🤯 What about the T-cell immunity? They represent a much more accurate gauge of immunity, as antibodies can drop to minimal levels but T-cell reactivity can remain active and strong.

About 9% of Americans exposed to COVID-19 by mid-summer. That's a long way from herd immunity.'The only way we're going to get to herd immunity, unless you're in a very closed community like a prison, is for everybody to get vaccinated,' Dr. George Rutherford, an epidemiologist and biostatistician, said. Prison, or college, or office, or house full of people... must keep COVID-19 fear alive!!! Yes. Let’s continue to panic over this nonsense. At least in Florida we’re taking it back. Governor just lifted restaurant restrictions.
