WHO warns that waiting to achieve herd immunity to the coronavirus will kill a lot of people

That is generally achieved once enough people either get vaccinated or survive the virus so they have the antibodies to fight off new infections and the virus doesn't have enough new hosts to spread.

Herd immunity is necessary to really contain a virus, according to epidemiologists. That is generally achieved once enough people either get vaccinated or survive the virus so they have the antibodies to fight off new infections and the virus doesn't have enough new hosts to spread. "The idea that we would have herd immunity as an objective, in some sense, it goes against controlling the disease because if you were to say, 'We need to have a herd immunity of 70% and we should let the virus spread until we get to 70%,' we've seen what happens," he said. "Hospitals get overwhelmed. A lot of people die."

"They can't run. They can't exercise, they are out of breath, having coughing fits," he said. "Who wants or needs that?" The comments come as the coronavirus has spread to more than 16 million people worldwide and killed at least 660,881, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. That's nowhere near the levels needed to slow transmission, experts say.

'Chinese officials ignored their reporting obligations to the World Health Organization and pressured the World Health Organization to mislead the world when the virus was first discovered by Chinese authorities,' Trump said. Why should we listen to The WHO?

Herd? Are we animals again already?

😂😂😂🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥

The same WHO that LIED and WITHHELD Information about the Chinese Virus back in January

& the balance will be immune so let people carry on with their lives (old normal)..., alternative is just fear of the inevitable..... we are all gonna catch it at some point... like it or not...the sooner the better.... WHO ...

WHO They can keep warning. Pontificating will not help in getting a vaccine or better treatments. When they should have warned they were extremely late.

GOOGLE and sundarpichai are LYING 🤥 and TREASONOUS to the US.

at the same time it is worth noting the places seeing spikes now are those that locked down too early. florida, texas, arizona, nevada, california, georgia, mexico, south africa, india, israel, dominican republic, colombia, argentina, brazil, etc. So these spikes were inevitable.

That's not what happened with Sweden, and they have achieved this.

USA separated from WHO right? But FakeNewsMedia wants to input the WHO opinion, hmmmm... WHY

Sweden did not close down their schools....reported 1 new Covid death

That is ok, just think of all the oxygen we will save.

Good thing america quitted... dont listen to them !! China bought them

So, masks off on odd days?

Oh?....😯

You're trying to preach to a herd of animals. Good luck with that

that's a photo on the French Quarter ! nice
