> “ We need to have some humility here,” he added. “We really don’t know what the real number is. I think the real range is somewhere between 70 to 90 percent. But, I’m not going to say 90 percent.”
We don’t know, he doesn’t know, no one knows the exact number. Yeah he’s being a bit coy, but all the numbers he’s thrown out since the delta are in that range
Btw Fauci technically isn’t cdc. Just saying bc we’re being ultra strict on the herd immunity estimates but very lax on other facts when accusing the cdc. Seems inconsistent.
- ghoward 5y agoA "bit coy"? No. He said it explicitly that he's picking the highest number on the range. He gives no reason. Why not just tell us the range and leave it there? Also, if "we need to have some humility," then perhaps maybe experts should stop thinking that they know best for everyone?
