Herd immunity(HI) a big ask but we can do it. Countries targeting HI as % of total population= Israel 66%, Singapore 75%, NZ 78%, China 70-80%. We should target minimum 67% total pop, preferably 80% (for Delta). HI includes 12-18years & should target 100% vaccination of 60+years.

In Easter 1982 Barry Marshall (left) and Robin Warren (right) discovered the bacteria that causes most stomach ulcers and can lead to gastric cancer. They had accidentally left agar plates in the incubator during the holiday. They were awarded the 2005 Medicine Prize.
