Herd immunity through vaccinations has been talked about from very early on in this pandemic. I've seen varying percentages on how many people need to be vaccinated to reach that, but it's been part of the discussion all along.
And this is the board that advocated reaching herd immunity by just letting the virus run its course.

Not really. Several nationally "respected" epidemiological experts like Peter Hotez out of Houston, advocate for jettisoning the term and have refused to use it. He argues that it minimizes the value of human life. And now you have Fauci trying to shift the conversation, per this article. Simply using the term will induce shrieks and wails from the Left. We can't have any light at the end of the tunnel or any targets to strive for, and need to prolong the purgatory indefinitely.
