The danger with that decision is we don't yet know the extent or length of the human immune response to COVID-19. Many of the immune responses to the coronavirus family are very short-lived. Going all-in on herd immunity could work or it could be devastating, we simply don't know enough about the antibody response to make that call on the medical facts.

So many of you Cletuses don't understand that's not how herd immunity works.

Herd immunity only works if most people in the population are vaccinated (for example, 19 out of every 20 people need to be vaccinated against measles to protect people who are not vaccinated). If people are not vaccinated, herd immunity is not guaranteed to protect them.
