Vaccines have been quite effective at preventing cases of COVID-19 that lead to severe illness and death, but none has proved reliable at blocking transmission of the virus, Jones noted





Since the earliest days of the pandemic, there has been one collective goal for bringing it to an end: achieving herd immunity. That's when so many people are immune to a virus that it runs out of potential hosts to infect, causing an outbreak to sputter out.


Many Americans embraced the novel farmyard phrase, and with it, the projection that once 70% to 80% or 85% of the population was vaccinated against COVID-19, the virus would go away and the pandemic would be over.

Now the herd is restless. And experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have set aside herd immunity as a national goal.

The prospects for meeting a clear herd-immunity target are "very complicated," said Dr. Jefferson Jones, a medical officer on the CDC’s COVID-19 Epidemiology Task Force.

“Thinking that we’ll be able to achieve some kind of threshold where there’ll be no more transmission of infections may not be possible,” Jones acknowledged last week to members of a panel that advises the CDC on vaccines.

Vaccines have been quite effective at preventing cases of COVID-19 that lead to severe illness and death, but none has proved reliable at blocking transmission of the virus, Jones noted. Recent evidence has also made clear that the immunity provided by vaccines can wane in a matter of months.

The result is that even if vaccination were universal, the coronavirus would probably continue to spread.

“We would discourage” thinking in terms of “a strict goal,” he said.

Agree totally. I just find it funny when the minority (that gets smaller every day) thinks they're smarter than the vast majority.
I felt like you were implying that you are smarter than those who made a different choice. I guess I am touchy lately... on the defensive because I feel I am constantly under attack. It has not been an easy couple of years. Sorry to bite yer head off.

Have you ever read the ingredients on the processed food you eat. Now tell me you know what 95% of it really is. People inject themselves daily with hundreds of chemicals they don't have a clue about. Have you ever ate at Taco bell or had a hot dog?
I do agree with you, however, there is a huge difference between eating it and having your body process it vs injecting it directly into your blood stream.

Whens the last time the president of The United States mandate everyone to eat hotdogs or else lose their jobs?
Biden: Hot Dog? What are Hot dogs?
Advisor: Food Mr. President. They're good with ketchup and onions. I'll get a couple for us.
One hour later.....Biden looks at his hot dog and opens the bun and quickly looks up at his Advisor and ask,
"What part did you get?"

Yep.
Hot dogs and Taco Bell go right through your system for sure.
The kill juice lingers on with those covid antibodies doing battle.

Yes, and those chemicals in processed food are horrible for you too.
I won't argue that. Also the drugs they shoot the animals up with to get them to grow faster and maintain their health until slaughter I'm sure are suspect also---and the fertilizers and chemicals they put on our crops are "safe ?" also. I get tired of people saying they will never put anything bad in there bodies against their will---YOU DO IT EVERYDAY.

Yes! The chemicals are absolute poison. I agree with “you do it everyday” however, the key there is they CHOOSE to do it.
