The reproduction rate represents the average number of new infections caused by a single infected individual. If the rate is greater than 1, the infection is able to
spread in the population. If it is below 1, the number of cases occurring in the population will gradually decrease to zero.
We're closer to herd immunity than people think. We're currently at 0.89

And ignore the huge spike that came right after the riots

The number (or percentage) of people that have been exposed to the virus and have not been tested is likely quite high. People now naturally immune. The number of people a person would have come in contact with over the course of a year even with the largely ineffective protective measures.
A number that if known would never be properly reported as control would disintegrate.

We are averaging 50,000 new cases per day and 0.89 is still too close to 1 for us to see a dramatic reduction in new cases. We need an R closer to 0.5 or less to see a dramatic reduction in new cases that would justify us saying that we are achieving herd immunity. We are still a few months away from achieving herd immunity. I would be highly surprised if we achieve herd immunity before Labor day at the earliest, but we are a lot sooner than most of the world. Thank you President Trump for going all in on developing multiple vaccines with Operation Warp Speed instead of pussyfooting around like Europe did.

Sure, if we just follow the WHO's shifting goalposts and GET A VACCINE!!! But in God's holy name never, ever, ever, ever, ever let anyone, including the young and healthy, get exposed to a disease has a 99.99999% survival rate.

It's almost like it's a virus.
How are hospitalizations and deaths doing? We still have no vents available and bodies piling up?

Flatten the curve man, stay the course.

Unless Dr. Fawchi approves of it then it's not legit

Where is that chart in the link you provided? I looked but maybe I was in another section.

You have to go to a dropdown menu to pull up the infection rate
Should say "metric" in the upper left hand of the chart
You can change it to see things like vaccination numbers and the like and include different countries

Nope, no linkage to China, Chinese, none to be seen here. Move along, move along.

How many of those are people that would be alive and reasonably healthy if not for COVID?
Posted on 5/5/21 at 6:25 pm to Powerman
Just wait until COVID-21 is released. It has upgrades to improve glitches in the previous release.
