On Herd Immunity and Going Back to Normal

Herd immunity is our God installed app for fighting off infectious viral diseases as a population. The more of us that encounter a virus and become immune, the less of us there are to encounter the virus.
- most cases of COVID are benign
- once most of us are exposed we will have herd immunity and will not need a vaccine
- mitigation began with allowing essential workers to be exposed
- increased testing = more cases identified
- more cases identified = documented closeness to achieving herd immunity
- achieving herd immunity = going back to normal
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." Hosea 4:6
