I've made my share of mistakes regarding the Covid19 pandemic--being slow to realize the demographic/age profile comes to mind. OTOH, I've always been a herd immunity skeptic, for two basic reasons: 1. The 10 minute/6 feet guideline (and, yes, the distance is disputed) that was put forward very early on was, to me, a strong suggestion that this viral disease was not as readily transmitted as many feared. The fact that it still remains largely concentrated geographically to relatively congested human environments seems to me to be a confirmation of that.
