March 10, 20214 yr Kz: only .01% of the population died from Covid-19 Also Kz: George Floyd died from Covid-19 🤡🌏

My point was that acting like the "Darwin Award" is going to thin the herd of non-vaccine takers was kind of ridiculous considering the vast majority of people who get it will survive - somewhere around 99.8% according to the CDC. So, yeah, my 99.99% figure was just so ridiculous! The .2 are no doubt Trump supporters 23 minutes ago, EaglesRocker97 said: Welp, all out of likes for the first time in awhile.

March 11, 20214 yr Latest numbers I found were 93 million total doses administered, 62 million have received one dose and 32 million are fully vaccinated (10% of U.S. population). Amazing!

Amazing! So 28% have already had at least one shot? I wonder what the total % is that had a shot and\or caught COVID to get an idea how close we are to herd immunity.

We're up to 2.1 million vaccinations a day and rising!

I wonder what the total % is that had a shot and\or caught COVID to get an idea how close we are to herd immunity. 62M have had at least one dose. Just shy of 20% of the population. As for overlap with those that had natural immunity, it'll be very difficult to estimate, but it's probably considerable. In other words, if we have 25% that have already caught covid, a majority of them (~15%) are probably gonna get vaccinated, so what we want need to know is how many that won't get vaccinated but already have or will get natural immunity. Tough to guess at but I still think we're still looking at a fall/winter timeframe for hitting herd immunity.
March 11, 20214 yr My neighbor told me he got his 2nd shot, but it has an expiration date in the Fall???? Maybe he was just confused about what they wrote on his card. Lol

Can’t we simply say that the 30m that have tested positive plus the 62m that have had one dose (and will likely get the second) means that 92m people have some level of immunity to date? That’s roughly 27% of the US population. We need 75-80% to reach herd immunity right? We’re a long way off then!

That’s roughly 27% of the US population. We need 75-80% to reach herd immunity right? We’re a long way off then! The thing is, of those 30m that tested positive, a lot of them got vaccinated. It's probably not 50% but it's certainly not 0%. Determining the overlap is going to be tricky. Keep in mind that the 30m are just confirmed cases, there are more that are unconfirmed, but we don't know how many. If I had to guess I'd say somewhere in the range of 20%-30% of the population have natural immunity.

Amazing! Something there doesn't make sense .. if 32 are fully vaccinated that makes 64 million doses there - assuming they're pretty much entirely made up of Moderna and Pfizer. Do they consider getting both shots one dose?

Do they consider getting both shots one dose? I used a combination to get these numbers. 62 million was reported on NBC last night. CDC gave the 93 million figure, and full vaccination can be found here: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/us-covid-number-fully-vaccinated 32 million fully vaccinated I took to mean either 2 shots or 1 depending on vaccine. The "Total doses" figure would include people who have received one or both shots. I think the 62 million is phrased as "at least" one dose.

March 11, 20214 yr One in four adults in the U.S. has received their first COVID-19 vaccine — and we’re now leading the world in vaccinations. That’s progress. Joe Biden

March 11, 20214 yr Actually, I see that he added the qualifier of one in four adults. I guess that might skew things somewhat. Better to just refer to it as a percentage of the overall population though.
March 11, 20214 yr Got my first dose around an hour ago. Hurt a little when the microchip implants into the deltoid, so definitely something to be aware of.
