>IANAD, immunity is complicated, and long term immunity after having recovered from CoVID-19 infection is not likely

Does this change your opinion on herd immunity?

- makach 6y agoThanks for sharing! All science affects my opinion. For me, not knowing, makes me have a pessimistic attitude. Lesson learnt is to keep this to myself.
- mikem170 6y agoDitto! I feel the same - I'm more comfortable with facts and stats. It's a shame that the news emphasizes pessimistic headlines and anecdotes over science.
