COVID: Herd immunity by April, says a Johns Hopkins professor

Dated: February 24, 2021 by Sharyl Attkisson 10 Comments

      

Coronavirus

COVID-19 infections will be "mostly gone" by April due to herd immunity, says Johns Hopkins professor, Dr. Martin Makary, in a Wall Street Journal opinion article.

There is reason to think the country is racing toward an extremely low level of infection. As more people have been infected, most of whom have mild or no symptoms, there are fewer Americans left to be infected. At the current trajectory, I expect Covid will be mostly gone by April, allowing Americans to resume normal life.

Dr. Martin Makary, Wall Street Journal, 2/18/21

Dr. Makary says that the rapid decline of infection rate the past six weeks (down 77%), can "only be explained" by natural immunity, and that immunity from prior infection is far more common than can be measured by testing.

He applies a "time weighted case-capture average" of 1 in 6.5 to the 28 million confirmed cases and reasons that 55% of Americans already have natural immunity.

Coupled with people getting vaccinated, the country is "racing toward an extremely low level of infection", says Makary.

Dr. Makary argues that people with prior COVID-19 infections should forego vaccines until all vulnerable seniors are vaccinated.

Dr. Makary notes that some of his colleagues agree with him privately, but do not wish to talk about herd immunity publicly for fear the public will become "complacent" in observing preventative measures.

Makary says, "scientists shouldnโ€™t try to manipulate the public by hiding the truth."

    The end of the lockdown should have been months ago. But weโ€™re still waiting for it to come. Why?

        Biden is much more of a vaccine lover than Trump ever was.
        Yes, the are both wrong to promote more vaccines that do little for health.

    overall the U.S. rate of infection has declined by around 30% in the last 454 days.
    here in virginia, since mid january, new infections are down by abour 60%.
    go here https://covidusa.net/ so see how your stat is doing. with a few exceptions, almost everyone is down, dramatically.
    at this rate, by memorial day, it will be extreamly hard for the PTB to justify further restrictions on your life.
    but they will try.....
