I wonder if I could successfully, hypothetically of course, come up with a totally real and not made up chronic illness that keeps me from wearing a mask and therefore not have to go back to my office this year. Hypothetically, of course.

Hmm

The federal government sent coronavirus stimulus payments to almost 1.1 million dead people totaling nearly $1.4 billion, Congress’s independent watchdog reported Thursday.


The Washington Post previously reported that the Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service disbursed some payments of up to $1,200 each to dead people. But the astonishing scope of the problem had not been known.


The U.S. Government Accountability Office, an independent investigative agency that reports to Congress, issued the finding as part of a comprehensive report on the nearly $3 trillion in coronavirus relief spending approved by Congress in March and April. It said it had received the information from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration in an accounting as of April 30.

Tbf, everyone in New York probably had it already. That state and Connecticut got a hold of that herd immunity.

[Athas]

What exactly is the threshold for herd immunity?

[Zealot]

When everyone on Earth has had it and either lived or died.

1. I like how they cut off him correcting the statement half a second later.
2. wtf is with the right people on this forum having to add "LOL, LMAO" at the end of each sentence.

It makes it really hard to take you guys seriously, besides other things of course.

Yeah, I'm really worried by 0.5% error.

The threshold for herd immunity is when R0 drops below 1 because enough of the population has already had it that it is self-limiting. So if you imagine that you start out with no one immune and every new infection causes 4 more infections (R0=4), then when >75% of the world is immune that R0 number would drop below 1, because 3 of the 4 people the newly infected person would have given it to would be immune and thus unable to get it.

However, it's not clear whether herd immunity is possible for Sars-Cov-2 because preliminary signs indicate that immunity to it is likely temporary. If people are really only immune to this shit for a few months, the logistics of attempting to reach herd immunity are more daunting than "lmao just have everyone stay at home for 2 weeks."
