Herd immunity is developing - the numbers of new cases are falling as well as the lethality.
Herd immunity requires 90-90% of the population to be immune right?
With the current death rate of known infections vs deaths, if 95% of the US has herd immunity from spreading the virus alone (not a future vaccine), that's 17 million people dead. 17 million people dead because of Trump if you're linking his rallies to herd immunity.
Anything less will not achieve herd immunity and the deaths that accompany the infections will be for nothing and besides, the entire point of herd immunity is to avoid infections by using vaccinations to make the population immune.
Infecting the population to reach a point of immunity... It's a serious "wtf are you talking about" moment.
But alas, it's just a basic tard's Trump defense...
Now I'll admit that's on the high end of estimations because that is assuming the death rate is 5.5% calculated from known cases vs deaths but given the issues with testing (thanks to Trump) and the asymptomatic nature of the virus the actual number of cases would be much higher which would in turn lower the death rate, but you're still looking at millions dead in the version where Trump is deliberately infecting people at his rallies to achieve herd immunity which is what you're saying to justify his selfish actions.
In your world, a vote for Trump is a vote for millions of dead Americans.
4 Americans died in the Benghazi attack that you still to this day want to see Hillary in Gitmo for. But you're ok with Trump's death count being millions?
ooof...
Many people on here doubt the number of Jews that died in the Holocaust but if you ignore those bigots and take the accepted value, around 6 million, Trump's death count would be 2-3 times higher than that, if your defense of him Rich is reality, more if you take the bigots version of the Holocaust into account.
That's a really great defense, you've really topped yourself with this one. Bravo.
